If this interests you I built an entire SRS app around this idea: https://mochi.cards/

How long has this been around? Surprised I haven't seen it before! Fantastic work. I would love if I could use this with Roam Research somehow

Thanks! I launched it on hacker news about 8 months ago.

Hi, this is cool. I didn't know about your project and wish you continue to work on it as, personally, don't know any popular application except Anki.

I just signed up as a paying customer about 3 hours before this HN thread. Mochi has been fantastic so far - it has most (all?) of the power of Anki, but a much more thoughtful UI. Although Mochi imported my Anki decks seamlessly, I prefer Mochi’s native Markdown support.
Thanks for making it!

It has no addons. Also, its algorithm seem very... crude.

Do you have any plans for a mobile app?

Yep, working on it now, should be out by the end of March. I'll start calling for beta testers soon on Twitter.

Awesome! I'm not on Twitter, but would like to be a beta tester. Do you by any chance have a mailing list or RSS feed? If I buy a subscription will you email subscribers when the beta comes out?

(not OP, just a new paying customer)
FWIW, the mobile-optimized version of Mochi’s Web site is excellent on both phones and tablets.

How do you get to it? The version of the site I got on my phone was completely unusable (buggy even if I had my mobile browser view it as a desktop site and zoomed completely out)
Edit: I was unfair. Just tested in Chrome Android and it worked fine, and Firefox Android and it worked mostly fine with some minor bugs (mainly clicking on menu icon does a text selection). The complete failure was in Firefox Previous, which is incomplete and completely reasonable not to test with.
