Re: Show HN: I made a minimalist spaced repetition tool
#42Creator here. As a University student I was struggling a lot with the huge amount of information I needed to remember for my courses. I started using spaced repetition (Anki) and it worked great! I enthusiastically shared this method with my family but they got overwhelmed by the complexity of the Anki interface and all the options. I wanted to change that. So I built memordo. I focused on creating a minimalist but s…

#44Earlier quoted context omitted.
This is a valid point. What do you think would be respectable amount of free cards? - or is having a card limit even the right way to of differentiate between free and premium? Very interested in hearing your points - i'm totally new to this.
I appreciate you responding. I would say 250+ and no more than 1000 should be more than enough. Usually doing 20..40 new DAILY is a max if you are doing anything bigger. I would allow users bigger db (1000..5000) but would limit to the moment they will reveal (open) 250 new cards. You want them to create habbit. This needs more than few weeks. Completly dont worry about them using 200 or 500, if habbit do not kickin,…

#45Theory / 2 Cents: don't just work on a GUI for spaced repetition cards, invent an open file format for spaced repetition (perhaps an XML plus an schema, or a JSON based file format, a subset of HTML or markdown, etc...). The idea is that you create a file format spec, perhaps even some open source libraries to operate on the file format. And then you sell a really nice GUI for editing that (perhaps a web page, perhap…

#47$5 for unlimited and basically 25 cards for 'free' makes it quite obvious that this tool does not provide anything the market already offers.
Aren't people analysing what is already out there?
Anki/Ankiweb is free. What student will every pay $5/month for your service? No one.
I assume that you will visit your subscription numbers, your page counts for a few weeks, you will see no magic and sudden richness, and either you loos interest or you discover that someone is misusing your server through some bug and you shut it down.
I don't wanna be pessimistic, don't get me wrong, but i really want to know what your mental idea was showing it here.
If you really wanna have feedback: - Make it as simple and fast and easy to create new cards/decks - Add an IOS/Android App; Either native or PWA - Fix your unicode stuff , doesn't work everywhere just because it works on your pc - Actually teach people how to write proper cards; Your description, to be honest, is as shitty avg as any other website
And as a final point: Actually think of something which is worth $5 per Month and makes any difference to what the market already has to offer.

Re: Show HN: I made a minimalist spaced repetition tool
#49I'm always curious on what type of feedback the author really is looking for or if it is just cheap ad. $5 for unlimited and basically 25 cards for 'free' makes it quite obvious that this tool does not provide anything the market already offers.
