      It makes me happy that OP posted https://sidhion.com/blog/28h_days/ in October of 2023, and somehow lasted 4 months before learning about https://xkcd.com/320/. It's interesting that OP decided to try to align to a daytime schedule on the weekend, instead of during the workweek as in the comic.

      All in the original post: https://sidhion.com/blog/28h_days/

      This was just the 1 year update.

      Idea is that you go to be when you feel tired.

      Yes, it is linked[1] in the first sentence of the article.
