I write comments first, then fill in the code later, adjusting the comments as I learn better ways to do things. That way, the comments are like a guide to anyone as to the goal of a section of code. I comment about every 2 or 3 lines of code, or more sometimes. I even comment on things that everyone would easily understand. My comments are basically a plain English version of the code. Functions and such have comments or docstrings that explain the function and the basic steps of its functionality, so that’s about 2 times that I explain things in my code. I’ve never had anyone say I comment too much. When reading uncommented code, I wish there were more comments sometimes to explain what each variable does or is. My variables are often named with 4 or 5 words, connected by underscores or title case. I often see variables that aren’t named well and try to avoid that myself.
