flashcards-obsidian VS ebisu

There's an Obsidian plugin for Anki -- https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian

It connects with your Anki desktop app. You create notes in Obsidian in a specific format, and they get converted to Anki flashcards. This way your flashcard creation process becomes much easier if you already use Obsidian for note-taking.

I want to create something like flashcard. Not like the usual flashcard with single line question and answer. I have already tried the famous plugins like obsidian-spaced-repetition, obsidian-recall and flashcards-obsidian. But all of them are designed to have multiple flashcards in a single note. Though spaced repetition plugin display my files, everything below white lines are discarded. Im looking for a solution where i can use my existing atomic notes as flashcards. Title of the note should be in the front side of the card and content in the back side. And it should use a similar algorithm and interface used by plugins like spaced repetition. obsidian-smart-random-note This is the only plugin close to what im looking. Unfortunately, it doesn't support Anki algorithm. How can i configure my atomic notes to be severed as flashcards?

I've personally settled on obsidian-flashcards as it allows me to write notes using standard syntax without too much extra markup, but the downside is that it litters block anchors all over the place and once in a while I'll trigger a bug that requires using the console to resolve. Major respect to all the plugin authors that open sourced their hard work -- I just wish that the overall flashcard experience was a bit more polished.

It would be nice to have a comparison between your project and obsidian-flashcards. The latter looks semi-abandoned on github, so you have a good chance to become the de-facto standard on obsidian if you can reach feature parity and have a relatively painless conversion. For example, I have some decks built with flashcards-obsidian. I would happily switch to your tool if it was better but I don't want to spend too much time converting my cards to a new format.

I'm not sure what you mean, but here's the link to the plugin: https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian/wiki You can see the examples there and see if it's something you'd want to try.

Isn't this what the Obsidian Flashcards plug-in does?

I use this plugin: https://github.com/reuseman/flashcards-obsidian

I would suggest the flashcards plugin. It integrates with Anki, which is a great tool for spaced repetition.

I really wish something like https://github.com/fasiha/ebisu becomes the norm. That is, the idea of fitting the cards to your time (by prioritising) rather than you having to do everything there software wants.

The only bit missing is some algorithm deciding how often to introduce new cards based on your historical data.

It seems from the description that FSRS still puts an exact review date on each card? This feature was pretty much the reason why I stopped using Anki. I'm not in college and not doing exams, I just want to practice when I feel like it, maybe with large breaks between sessions, and not feel like there's a backlog building up.

I think Anki is a great app, I just wish there was an algorithm that would just randomly sample cards (with probability proportional to how urgently you need to review it) rather than put a review date on them. Something like https://github.com/fasiha/ebisu but available as an Anki plugin (if that supports custom algorithms on mobile yet?) or a similar app with an open format for cards.

"GoodNotes uses the Ebisu algorithm for its spaced repetition feature. Ebisu uses a Bayesian model to estimate the probability of remembering a given flashcard, which allows faster adaptation to changes in recall ability. Both algorithms have been shown to be effective in practice, you can learn more about Ebisu at https://fasiha.github.io/ebisu/ "

This is a fundamental issue with SM-2 and how ease factors work. I personally have my Anki settings set up such that there is no ease factor penalty, though I will be working on porting Ebisu v3 to Anki's v3 scheduler once it's ready, which should finally allow us to have proper adaptive ease factors for cards (on all platforms) without the ease hell problem.
