How often do you shave with a DE Razor?

I've been a daily shaver for many years. No issues.
I enjoy shaving so much that I'd shave twice a day if I need to, but I don't so it's just daily.
I shave four times a week, but I can count my yearly number of DE shaves on my fingers, since I use AC shavettes.
I shave every two days, or sometimes three days. My perception has always been that I get better, closer shaves more easily that way. I don’t know if my hair really becomes softer when it grows a bit longer, but that is how it feels. Maybe somebody here knows, but maybe longer exposure to skin oils or the effect of soaking longer hair before the shave causes a difference.
In any case, my hair is not dark so I don’t look unshaven 24hrs after a shave. I think too that if I shaved daily then it might become a chore rather than something I look forward to, and I might not want to spend the time I should for good preparation and lather. I also enjoy using very efficient razors and getting a long-lasting, close shave, which wouldn’t really suit a daily shave routine.

Usually every other day unless something important on the off day.
Most every night unless I’m on a single edge safety razor kick in which case, it’s still every night, but not with a double-edged razor.
I used to shave 6 days per week but now that I wear a covid mask I shave 3 days per week.
Every other day and so far Razorock SLOC has been the most satisfying. Norelco on the in-between days.
Another daily shaver here! If I miss a day, then I feel like a bum.
I shave daily as well. On the rare occasions that I miss a day, the first pass of the next shave feels really harsh. It is just more comfortable for me to shave daily.
I shave 3 times a week or just whenever I feel like it so mostly every other day

I shaved pretty much every day before discovering DE shaving and absolutely, without fail, every day since. I will even enjoy a top up shave prior to a posh evening out

I shave every day. Did so with a cartridge razor for decades, and now do so with a Rockwell 6S since December 2021. Two-pass shave, no irritation problems.
I see daily shavers say they do it for neatness of appearance, or simply because they enjoy shaving.
But does anyone else here hate the way an unshaven face feels? I sure do. My face feels too warm and crunchy if I don't take the stubble off every day.

I go every other day. Don’t like going longer than that and going everyday is just too much got my skin.
i happen to be one of those lucky/unlucky ones who(never will) still cant grow a full beard at middle age but the stubble is there so i shave everyday even though i dont really need to
