This feature in fact has already been implemented in my fork (gh/ahmedyarub/anki/pull/1). The authors asked me to add poll for features before creating them. [326328443-18ddbd2c-a871-46b0-933a-1e56510c51b7] Since I’m not allowed to create polls, please answer with yay or nay!

I suggest the opposite: a pinned deck. Something akin to the image below. [image]

[image] Expertium: I suggest the opposite: a pinned deck. Something akin to the image below. [image] I’ll create another poll for this feature. It is easy to implement in addition to being very useful Thank you :slight_smile:

Oh I’m sorry if you understood that I’m launching a competing app based on Anki’s code. That is a completely unethical thing and I would never do it.
