(wtf you created a different topic man I had to delete mine. I thought you’ll just post there.)
Some people don’t want Load Balance to be normally applied to sibling cards. Because this can mean due dates of sibling cards might end up getting closer to each other which leads to memory interference. This is generally the case for reverse cards that test you on the same piece of knowledge.
Some people on the other hand don’t mind Load Balancing applied to sibling cards. This will be people using Image Occlusion cards, cloze cards that are part of the same note but test you on different facts. This group doesn’t mind due dates of sibling cards getting closer to each other as their sibling cards test them on completly different pieces of knowledge.
Remember you can have decks where you’d want load balancing to ignore sibling cards and decks where you don’t mind load balancing acting on sibling cards.
@Expertium what do you think? make changes as you see fit. (but don’t remove facts please, if possible make the context clearer)
If you want me to make changes to the survey (I assume that’s what you want), please make it more specific. Ideally, write a sentence or two that I can just copy-paste into the survey.
If you want to copy paste, do it. Ideally everything I write above the horizontal line should replace the two points you mention. Also include the para in the bottom.
By the way, do you know what @user1823 is called in the forums?
@Expertium Can you put the poll in a more visible position in OP? It’s below everything as a minor edit.
Edit: You forgot to change the options in last question. Now the description above uses a particular sort of wording and the options in the last question uses a different kind of wording.
For the question of enabeling it by default, I think if it is, it will be confusing to people who are beginning to use anki.
They could ask themselves whether or not the algorithm is really working and not just wanting to shom them 27 cards a day for the whole week
I was seeing a different thing after every refresh lol. Anyways, the wording “allow siblings to appear on same day” is still confusing because there’s burying option and the cause of concern I already explained so I think it’s better to just remove that.
One more thing, you said “cloze cards that are part of the same note but test you on different material” in the description above it. The second point. Don’t you think material is a confusing word? say fact or maybe just the vague word “things”. That sounds better.
Edit: Just to confirm, isn’t the first question about whether users should be provided with an option to toggle load balancing?
@Expertium Shouldn’t the question just ask people whether they will like to turn this feature off? Because I’ll say, to the jeopardy of new users most daily and frequent users of Anki prefer more options. More options is more freedom to them. Perhaps that’s not the right question to ask? If we find that almost nobody has a problem with Load Balancing then it should be a default feature. No need to make new users take additional steps to get something this useful.
Don’t we all agree that it’s better to have the option ? Maybe what we should ask is if there was not an option to toggle it, what would they like best
What do you think of my suggestion? I believe the first question should be reworded.
(Btw, I accidently submitted my response twice, I was just testing )
