Chain/overall maintenance (self.gravel_cycling)

Pulling the bike out now that the snow's mostly melted way up here and realizing I probably need a new chain based on stretch last year... what's your chain (and other bits) maintenance routine? I definitely need to get something better going than a casual clean... I guess streams/mud/insane amounts of road dust are pretty hard on the system.

I wax my chains, but I'm not in a place of giving advice as I didn't cycle much in the last two years and didn't have to maintain anything really... but curious of what other people have to say!
