Aaaaaah ANKI is killing me !!!!!!!!!!

I don't wanna complain because Anki is amazing !

But I'm starting to get over 300 cards a day now (I'm trying to do a video a day and I'm on day 33). It takes me over 2 hours to go through them. At first it was fine but now I dread waking up in the morning because I know I will have to once again spend 2 hours looking at my screen and clicking on the same Again/Good buttons it's so tedious.

Today was the worst, for every 10 cards I got distracted by so many things like intrusive thoughts, mental rabbit holes, Whatsapp messages, etc. And today I've spent 10 hours !!! Of my day just doing Anki as a result.

If I don't do all 300 cards today, it'll jump up to like 500 cards tomorrow !!! So I have to finish it. So I have done neither today's lecture nor labs because I spent the whole day doing the 300 cards on Anki... Fck. I'm now 1 day late on JITL course as a result.

I love Anki because it is the reason I'm remembering everything I learn at this fast pace but I hate it also. What is this situation 😢...
