How to Memorize Faster with the Spaced Repetition Learning Technique

I personally don't think spaced repetition by itself works very well for a few reasons: -card creation from stuff you read or watch is a huge pain -most people make cards that don't work in real life but don't change them because they assume the algo is good for learning when they're really using it for cramming

I think incremental reading as implemented in supermemo is necessary for SRS to shine: incremental reading works as systematized learning which makes cards in spaced repetition (systematized memorization) much better made

Yomichan, sub2srs, Migaku Dictionary's export definitions function, and many other tools simplify the process considerably.

I didn't have language learning in mind at all. If for language learning, completely different. Tools for it are great, I also learn Japanese and mainly use yomichan + voracious and plan to switch into using mpvacious.

Card creation from stuff you read is one of the problems I'm trying to solve with Traverse.link. It has interlinked notes which can be turned into flashcards (adding active recall questions etc.). You can currently paste a link on a note to convert a web article into cards. We're also working on PDF and EPUB import

For illustration, I've turned the linked article into flashcards here https://traverse.link/home/How%20To%20Memorize%20Faster%20Wi...
