    I generally agree - a new tab should, for the most part, be distraction-free.

    However, with some cleverness, you can add content to the new tab page that adds value - e.g. AnkiTab (https://github.com/corollari/ankiTab) to help you review your decks. Sure, it's a minor distraction, but it's time-bounded (unlike a news feed), and theoretically it's a net gain if your decks contain knowledge that's genuinely useful to you.

  • Since Anki is open-source, why doesn't it have more developers working on it?

    Firstly, I want to say that I never looked into how the anki infrastructure and everything works. I've found the comment I was thinking about. The context was a browser extension that lets you do reviews whenever you open a new tab, and for that connected to the anki service, basically doing a sync each time. Now, dae explains that a sync after a delay results in reloading the data from disk on the server, which on scale affects hosting costs.
