Tips for reviving a spaced repetition practice
- Continually make new cards: Making new cards about things I was currently learning/excited about -- somehow, having some new cards makes the older "stale" cards more tolerable
- Liberally suspend cards: Suspending a bunch of cards that felt too difficult (indicating my encoding of the material into prompts wasn't very good)
- Reviewing a bunch of kanji cards (these felt easy and like I could do them at a rapid pace, and seeing the review count go up felt encouraging, even though I don't normally like to just "make the number go up" as that leads to Goodharting)
- Making Anki more social -- making cards with other people, reviewing their cards, making cards for other people
- Using filtered decks to "grab" cards I was more interested in reviewing (this requires having some sensible tagging system/organization into decks, so that you can grab the more interesting cards)
