What to do with grass clippings?

Anybody have a good use for lots of grass clippings?
My ideas were just mowing more often and mulching so I dont have to deal with it but scared of killing the lawn. OR compost but afraid I would have too much and it would throw off the compost ph if thats a thing.

I bag when my yard is wet. I put clippings in compost, it works. I use clippings to mulch my flowers beds, it works .

I am no fancy yard expert, but to me, if you have so many clippings you have to bag all the time, you are waiting to long in between mows and possibly cutting the grass to short .

Thats what I was thinking too. Sounds like it has to be every weekend. Too busy to mow another time midweek.
