I have so much trouble in getting Anki present new cards at random order. I have this options
<I’ll paste in next post, there;s some limit>
And it seems to work initially. But If I make any shifting of cards between decks (typically combining items into one bigger deck), this starts to fail and is not random at all.
The only thing that works for me is using “Random Sequential Order” - this shows a warning that it is not recommended with v3 scheduler. But this in turn requires me to turn this option on and off all the time, after moving cards arounds decks or importing new cards (from CSV). And also I read you consider removing this option.
Is this a bug? It looks to me Anki doesn’t pickup cards randomly, but maybe tries some weird strategy instead, which for me fails entirely.
Here is a deck which I just attempted to study. Vefore study, it contained 187 “new” sentences, each with one of 3 words. Of course I hope for some random distribution, like seeing a couple of sentences with one word, and then some with the other. Not 20 with the same word in a row.
And here is detailed look after learning some items or so. As you see, Anki only pulled ~17 sentences with “yue” word (visible over “Due” column"), and nothing for other words. Screenshots altogether show complete list.
I know everything can happen when things are random, you can get 10 heads if you flip a coin sometimes. But I have same situations all the time, every single day. What am I doing wrong?
Here are my deck settings:
