THIS ENDED UP NOT BEING A GLITCH, I JUST DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE BACKLOG BUTTON. LEAVING ORIGINAL POST FOR CONTEXT IN CASE ANYONE RUNS INTO THIS ISSUE
(MODS, REMOVE IF YOU WOULD PREFER THAT).
The last couple of weeks I have been trying to reschedule my Anki cards for my primary deck, but I run into an issue. When I try to reschedule using FSRS (while also “Rescheduling Cards on Change”), I end up having my “to Review” in the main Anki tab display a very different number than my “Future Due” today in my stats tab.
For context, I am targeting 95% retention, and as you can see from my “True Retention,” I am hitting that mark. The deck that I am rescheduling has 23,826 cards (almost all of them are clozes). I have been studying this deck for around a year. I once tried to re-optimize my parameters, but the application told me that I was optimized. I am trying to reschedule after I have finished my daily review. All other relevant information is available in the screenshots below, but if I am missing anything, I am more than happy to provide it.
Below, I lay out the problem in screenshots.

I am not sure what is causing this glitch, and I am not sure if it is safe to proceed to use this rescheduled FSRS because of this discrepancy. There is only one mitigating factor that jumps to mind here, but I am not sure if it matters:
- I once used the FSRS addon to allow me to skip two days of reviews when I got very sick. Maybe this has permanently messed up my review history.
Two other mitigating factors that might be the case (but are very unlikely are that):
- I am targeting a very high retention (95%) which might get outside of some bound.
- My deck is too big and this is causing issues with the rescheduling process
Please let me know if it is safe or not to use the rescheduled deck to proceed.
