I do 4 per week.
I had N3 almost complete doing 2 or 3 per day, but I was not learning so I reset N3 and started going slow. Now I spend most of my study time on the Cram feature.

Both of these you mention are going against the dopamine boost side of bunpro progression but very beneficial 
I also have done a bit of reseting recently and realised it is a good thing to do regularly, at least on selected grammar points. Just starting to use the cram feature as well, I like it it is a more objective test of knowledge.

I wonder if @staff can reveal the current statistics for this. I don’t see anything that could hurt BP as a business model if this is shared, but I could be wrong.
Nonetheless, maybe the stats will be tough to gauge when there are also users who don’t consistently or continuously use BP and leave it a long time for the average time to mean anything before they went on hiatus.

I don’t really learn a set amount each day, I just make sure that I do all my reviews for the day. Then, if I do feel like learning more, I just read unknown grammar points and add them individually to reviews. Some days I learn 0 new grammar points, different days if I’m motivated enough I learn and add 15 new grammar points.

It averages out to maybe 1.2 a day. I set my learning goal to 2 and there are many days where I felt it doesn’t stick very well. Sometimes I add vocab instead. I do it every day and have a good streak, but some points tend to not stick so well, requiring revisiting or cramming all over.

Yes, when they group nicely together, I do more.

Two per day, weather permitting.

I average 2-3/day, but it’s not consistent. There are plenty of days I do zero and just review and cram. There are other days I learn as many as 12 new grammar points if they are sufficiently easy. 3-6/day is pretty normal unless there’s a lot to review.
I’ve averaged 10 anki cards a day since I started using anki (13801 mature cards)
- there are many days I do 20 or 0 cards
- I count each point twice, once listening and once reading
- this also includes my kanji cards
Adjusting for 2) and 3) it’s closer to 5915 mature notes or 4 points a day
(Jalup 5,000-7,000 are vocab decks for manga and I stalled out because immersion is scary but seeing everyone struggle with super car makes me want to finnish)
I’m pretty beginner, so I’m doing 1 per day. I was struggling to really learn the grammar points at first, because I don’t have that much vocabulary, so I added 2 vocab per day, and I’m now starting to understand more and not get all my reviews wrong.

I do 1 grammar point a week and 5-ish vocab a day. That’s just what works with me. I wanted to take my time through N5 but also not feel burnt out.

3 a day.
10 vocab a day.
But, when I finished N5, I sat one it for a week or so and just studied those. Going over the ones I failed.
I plan to do a longer stop at N4. Just giving myself time to soak it in. I find having seen the grammar points, even if I’m messing them up, helps me absorb them better over time.

I only do new Grammar items when I ‘feel’ like I’ve got a handle on my Beginner and Adept level grammars. Usually this means that they are at a ‘low’ count. Currently that means that Beginners are less than about 15-20. (Also, my Ghosts should be equally ‘under control’, like less than 20. I have Ghosts on the default setting, so I tend to get a lot of them over time.)
When I do take on new Grammars, I do three at a time.
But, realistically, there can be times when there are many many days between new Grammar lessons. So, actually, it’s less than even 1 per day, to be honest.
I’m also in the middle of doing a huge number of Vocabs, so that has been diverting me somewhat from keeping up with Grammar. So, because of that, it’s actually been quite a while since I’ve added new Grammar. But I continue to do reviews for existing grammar of course.

For me, Monday morning is when I add new ones. I was doing 3 grammar points every week. Now I am doing 1 grammar point and 30 vocabulary.
It might not seem like much but I was doing together with the exercises in the Tobira book.
If you add that to a similar strategy I do on Wanikani, it adds to a nice chunk for me.
lol the A B thing does not always make sense to me, too… because what is A??

In every grammar point where it’s been A+B I have just seen it as a replacement for before and after the word. For example A 却って B or simply put contrary to A, it’s B.

I started last year and it varies month to month. I had 0 knowledge of Japanese before starting and now I’m a little over half way through N4 for grammar and vocab. I feel sometimes I really struggle to recall the things I have learned so I slow right down on new reviews. Working full time it is hard to clear the reviews in time so sometimes its all reviews and no new points. I think the consistency makes a huge difference and making it stick has become my new priority over adding the new points.

felt this, also just into n2 and the nuance and differences between become very difficult it feels from how similar something seems in meaning

Same. I ported all of my N5 from Duo and Renshuu and marked anything I didn’t want to review (basic particles, standard form verbs, etc) as “Mastered” so they didn’t clog up the review queue. Once I had them all put in, I kept up a pace of 3/day and am just about to finish up N4.
Last month, I switched reviews from written answers to reading, which helped a ton. I would recommend it to anyone who is doing input-focused learning, like if you don’t need to do output for a trip or whatever. If you mainly want to read/hear Japanese content, reading review goes away faster than written and results in way fewer ghosts. Probably half of my written errors were just not remembering how to spell て conjugations lol

It would be nice to have a difficulty rating on each grammar point, and maybe break up some of the harder ones into incremental steps. The lessons that are basically just peculiar uses of a word are easy easier than the constructions that change whole sentence meanings.
