Just as the post title says, is there anyone using Anki here? Would there be enough interest in making a separate Language Learning Anki community?

    Personally, I find Anki reviews to be torturous and has always been the worst part of my routine, to the point of putting me off learning entirely.

    I do agree that it is not for everyone, and is, frankly, an acquired taste. In my own experience, however, once you’ve made it a habit, it becomes a lot lighter, eventually becoming routine.

    What I use it for is a bit different though: I don’t use it for drilling. I find that learning stuff through Anki to be terrible, even though it is certainly possible. Rather, once I’ve already learned stuff, Anki would then come in to keep that information fresh, and refresh it if I happen to forget it. It doesn’t mean that I won’t forget what’s in my cards–that’s up to me to make sure that I do my reviews honestly, and even that’s no guarantee. However, I think that with all that, I’d be able to retain most of what I’ve learned.

    Anyways, yeah~ Thanks!
