Generally all at once; except, of course, my guitars that have either a floating bridge or under-saddle piezo pickups.

Always have done one at a time. When I got my RainSong, the info sheet with it said to change the strings one at a time so that the UST (Baggs Element) would stay in the correct position.

All off, quick clean, restring. It doesn't take a lot of thinking on my part.

I used to take one off at a time but because I change strings maybe 3 times a year I take them all off and do a major cleaning and lubricating with fret bore oil.

At one point when guitars are built they have no strings. All the strings are put on at the same time. Works for me and I can condition the fingerboard.

As both a mandolin and guitar player, I try to use the same sequencing....1 string at a time. Mandolins seem to be a bit more finicky than a guitar, but I REALLY don't want my bridge falling off, tape not withstanding, and with the pesky mandolin tuning, in spite of using an electronic tuner, I really like to have a reference point for the replaced string; I have broken more than one E string whilst trying to tune a new one, and initially, the string stretch can be all over the map for me. Like so many situations with our respective instruments, what works for one may not work for another.

I do two at a time. Always have. No real reason. But two at a time.

I do take all your strings off, then put on the new set. Otherwise, it's impossible to clean the fretboard or polish the frets.
However, it will be more convenient if I can change one by one. At least for UST pickup, you then no need to worry about the piezo unbalance signal over the strings. Mine is Highlander IP-2. If I take all of strings off, I then need to put back strings to guitar with specific order (3->4->2->5->1->6). If not, the high E signal will be weaken. But it's worth to take off all strings for maintenance issue.

I take them all off at one time, clean the fretboard, wipe down the body and string them back up. No issues

I remove all of them at once, hydrate the fretboard and begin to place from the 6th to the 1st

I take one off at a time except for once a year when I oil the fretboard.
