I installed some gutter guards from Home depot and this really helped. The only issue I still have is in the spring the pollen sacks lay on the screens. I use a blower to remove them. No issues in the fall of the year.

What he said ^^. Gutter Guards
Get some pvc pipe and fittings. Take an 8 foot section glue a fitting to screw the hose to one end. Then glue a couple of 90’s on the other end with another fitting to screw a hose nozzle on that end. Hook up the hose and then you simply walk around hosing the gutters clean.

Haven’t had anything in the gutters since 2010 when I had Leaf Guard GutterSystem installed on house, shop, shed.
Cleaned gutters a few years and got bored with it. It’s a 2 story house. Went to Lowes and bought gutter guards for about a $100. Haven’t been on a ladder for 4 years. I’m happy!!!

I'm a gutter guard guy myself... before I had them though I used to clean them out while I installed the Christmas lights each year.
Hit Menards and get some of those gutter shields. They are not that expensive. Just make sure you install with the proper side up....don't ask me how I know there is a right and wrong way to install.

Stihl sells a hook up for your blower ( I have BG 55 cheap one) its 3 4 ft sections and 2 45s, it was like $24 at Ace makes a hell of a mess but eliminates the ladder.

I have Leafguard gutters so I don't have to worry about cleaning them or climbing ladders.
I had "Gutter Guard of Washington" install 5" gutters and their proprietary leaf screens. Works great and I haven't had to clean them since...about 10 years now. I have inspected the gutter runs for leaves and needles, and they're very clean. The screens cost about as much as the new gutters and downspouts, but it all works much better than the original builder grade crap.
Don't bother me, I'm screwing for virginity.
