FSRS unable to optimize error..... trying to fix it

after, i named it the same thing without the quotes

i need works of encouragement because pre-optimization my reviews were no longer than 4 months. Now optimization its saying 10 months for some of them. It scares me.

Yep, it can be a shock to the system! See FAQ #6fsrs4anki/docs/tutorial.md at main · open-spaced-repetition/fsrs4anki · GitHub .

Let’s try some different paths towards encouragement and see what catches your interest? :wink:

  1. I don’t see anything in your parameters that is immediately concerning. [Which is good news!] What do you get when you click Evaluate?

  2. Are you coming from basically the default settings of the default (SM-2) algorithm, or did you have it really customized?

  3. What has your retention rate been like before? – Stats > Answer Buttons > Mature % correct.

  4. Sometimes it can help to look at your history with that card and get a sense of what FSRS sees – Card Info.

  5. You may want to consider setting a higher desired retention to start out – although 92% is already pretty high already, so step slowly. That will shorten all of your intervals, but it will also increase your workload.

i just gotta trust the process. I appreciate your help!!! my retention rate for mature cards is 95.5%. Not sure how that stacks up.

That’s good, so I don’t think staying at 92% or increasing to 93% (if you want shorter intervals) will be a problem for you.

okay! thank you for your help with all this. i really appreciate it! you are a good person, a Shepard to the wondering flock (clueless Anki ppl)
