Effective Spaced Repetition
&gt;A common failure mode (and I did this more than once, before I got the hang of it) is to use Anki for two weeks, then drop it, and pick it back up six months later only to find you have 600 cards due for review. This is not encouraging, and it defeats the point of spaced repetition, which is to review the cards on the intervals the algorithm chooses.
&gt;I don’t have much advice in this area, except that if you have persistent problems with conscientiousness, untreated ADHD etc. you should address that first.<p>This keeps happening to me, and I have somewhat treated (but severe) ADHD.<p>Does anyone have recommendations to make this easier? Either Anki settings, or using another app.
