speed-focus-mode VS anki_straight_reward

I'm using Anki for language learning and a while back I thought about decreasing the amount of time I spend on a card with the add-on Speed Focus Mode. My idea was by decreasing the time spent per card, I'd go through more cards in the same amount of time. I went from 30s per card to 12s for front AND back).

Speed Focus Mode: Auto answer to save time.

I use this one: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1046608507

I don't usually actively search for gamification add-ons for Anki, but I think some extensions I use currently express some aspect of gamification: 1. Review Heatmap visually shows the amount of days where you reviewed & didn't review Anki. It serves as a progress bar and motivator to continue to do daily reviews. However, I don't know how long you plan to run your experiment for: if it's only for a few days then it may not be a very strong motivator. 2. Speed Focus Mode caps the amount of time you can spend recalling a card to a user-specified amount, and auto-flips the card after the time limit. This add-on significantly changes the way that I review Anki. When using this add-on, I find myself being more willing to accept that I forgot something, as I'm motivated by the timer to just put out an answer by the time limit, even if said answer is wrong. When using this addon, you may have challenges knowing what time limit to set on the cards, however, depending on how complex the cards are. I usually have to spend much more time on my japanese cards than english vocabulary cards, for example, to recall something.

"Speed Focus Mode" add-on may help you about that :)

Is there an add-on (like Speed Focus Mode (https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1046608507)) that allows me to see my 'card creating speed'? I want something that can signal me that I am creating enough cards in a given interval of time.

You got the card correct two times in a row which increased its’ ease factor by 5%. Here’s a link if you want more info about the Straight Reward add-on. https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/957961234

That's why add-ons like Straight Reward help - as they'll reset a cards ease if you keep getting them right and hitting "Good".

The Straight Rewards addon does exactly this when you answer a card correctly multiple times in a row. It has a max ease setting that defaults to starting ease.

There is also an addon called Straight Reward that will increase the ease of your cards if you repeatedly get them right, it helps keep your cards from stacking up too much especially if they're ones you consistently get right.

Straight Reward - Must have to avoid ease hell.

The "straight reward" addon: https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/957961234 can help you mitigate the issue.

Would it mess up with Straight Reward and Pass/Fail: Remove Easy and Hard buttons?

The Straight reward addon is your friend.
