There is already a thread on this somewhere ^^

LOL

Ok, but don’t do that either.

So… is anyone going to link to it?

I upgraded to 2.0 recently and I ran into a bunch of different problems. A bunch of features I used got removed, and I’m not using any of the new features that got added. So the software has gotten worse from my point of view. Unfortunately I don’t have any suggestions for solving any of these problems.

1. The timeboxing feature no longer works for me. You used to be able to set a timebox that said “I only want to do 50 reps from this deck in a session.” Now you can only set a timebox for reviews, and that timebox excludes new cards and learning / relearning cards. You can’t timebox learning cards at all for some reason, and you can no longer just have Anki fill out your session with new cards at the end.

2. Upgrading my old decks didn’t work correctly. I had to go through and fix all the card templates, because the upgrade broke all the embedded media. The first day of reviews after upgrading was all re-learning cards for some reason, so the schedule wasn’t preserved correctly.

3. Spacing for sibling cards no longer works for new cards. You used to be able to space both new cards and reviews. Now you can only space reviews, and you can’t space new cards. So you might end up seeing two new sibling cards in the same session, which just isn’t very useful.

4. The per-session statistics have disappeared. You used to be able to see session-specific statistics, such as how many cards you answered correctly at the end of a given session. Now that information isn’t available anywhere I can find.

5. You can no longer delete selected sibling cards. If you try to do that, it deletes the entire note (formerly called a fact) and all the cards that go with it, and it doesn’t even warn you. If you want to get rid of individual sibling cards you have to go erase the “y” in the field named for the card template, then quit out of the deck and run the Empty Cards action in the Maintenance menu. It’s a very strange design.

6. Interval customization has lost features. You used to be able to put a range for the initial interval of each button, and the software would pick a random time in that range. Now you can only choose one value instead of a range, and for Easy it must be 99 days or less.

I’ve been using Anki 2.0 since season 2 now (Never used Anki before TextFugu). Upgrading did work for me. Importing decks is a bit different since it puts everything in a new seperated deck. But you can drag it and put it below a different deck (which acts as a catagory then). I actually like this method since you can easily do only vocab, or everything in a big mix if you want to :P.

The best “new” feature I actually use the most is Syncing. Most of the time I do Anki sessions on my mobile (It’s easy to sit somewhere else where you won’t be disrupted, or just for those times when you have to wait for something). Syncing actually works well. all decks and all attached media works great in the android app. Even the progress is syncronized.

So yea, For me it is an improvement. But I’m not really an advanced user of Anki, I just follow Koichi’s instructions and try to do everything Anki wants me to do every day.
