My take is that if your deployments carry so much risk that you're afraid to do it on a Friday, you have some work to do. Bringing down the risk of deploying through good observability, automated rollbacks, separate releases through feature flagging, etc. makes deployments almost a non-event and reduces stress by a lot.

Now, obviously there's always _some_ level of risk, but for the vast majority of changes I have no problem deploying no matter what day it is, and I have yet to pay for it with my weekend for the past decade.
