				//comment is for a actual comments
 
 /*comment*/ should only be used commenting out code
 
 These are some unwritten rules

				kamen67725yIf it's a whole line comment, //
 If it's a multi-line comment or commenting out something in the middle of the line, /* */
 
 P.S. I kind of hate how VSCode handles those; I need an extra extension just to automatically insert the proper one, and selecting a whole comment block requires an absurd amount of steps. WebStorm was perfect in that.

				 C0D4644185y# this is a comment C0D4644185y# this is a comment
 // this is another comment
 ; this is also a comment
 /* this is another one */
 /** ooh a bigger one **/
 "" here's a good one
 ' fuck this is one too
 
 Nope, I think that's all of them I've used this month so far.

				Depends, if it's a doclet, legal text or commented block of code then the multi-line one (although for doclets it would be /** */).
 For the rest //.

				"// Comment" is C++ style, not C
 C only really have "/* Comment */"
 
 I find "/* */" generally cleaner and use "//" mostly to comment out lines or shit while coding
