Do you use Anki flashcards to learn and remember things better?

When I tried to learn Chinese with Anki, I found that I was only getting better at Anki, not at Chinese. I could recall and name hundreds of hanzi, their meanings and their pinyin, and rise in the learning levels, but completely floundered when trying to actually speak the language and convey meaning. I'm in doubt whether Anki is actually good for anything at all, even as a supplementary.

It's okay, retarded revelations like these are part of learning.
Go play on duolingo for a while and thank your stars your vocabulary exists

Well when people talk Chinese characters don't come out of their mouths so... not sure why you thought it would help with speaking

Because you don't know how to balance your learning, sticking to only anki is fucking retarded, you have to do grammar books and then practice a lot.

Before korean I used anki to learn Japanese and did great.
After a year most of the word I knew weren't even on anki (it's been almost 2 years now but I got N2 and could have probably got N1, going to get it in the next session) because I read A LOT.

Anki is supposed to help you learn the language, not make you learn it, of course you're not going to learn a language by greeding through flashcards alone.

I tried it today for maths stuff but I'm not sure how useful it is or the best way to setup the cards.

You know that you should combine your anki with speaking, reading and writing skills?

It's very popular among medical students, I've been using it for about 3 weeks so far and I'm at the end of my first year, people claim its a superior way of learning, but I think part of the benefit comes from the fact that you can structure studying a lot more efficiently than traditional methods. Every morning I will finish my reviews for that day, and then the rest of the day I'll read, make notes and other traditional study methods while doing my new cards. Without forcing myself to review them in the morning, it is hard to structure revision schedules.

In the end I don't think there is a substitute for proper conceptual learning via books and summarizing in your own words (and teaching others), but Anki can increase the number of facts you know to fill in gaps of knowledge.

Anki is for vocabulary and expression, you're supposed to read the actual language.

Learning vocabulary via this stamp collecting method is a waste of time. Most of them keep floating in short term memory and not much gets ingrained. It's much more efficient and enduring to learn words during living use.

Why are clueless retards like you always so absolute? I learnt two languages with anki and on the verge of finishing med school thanks to it.

Spaced repetition is the among the most documented method of learning and Anki allows you to make at least a dozen of types of flashcards if not more.

for math it is very useful to remember definitions, theorems, and proofs (though it's not so good to memorize proofs, but it is good to be familiar with proof strategies).

I hate the default settings. They don’t show the cards enough in the learning phase. If I could mem it the first time I see it I wouldn’t flash card it anyways.
I got tired of messing with the settings, which are not super intuitive, and forcing the cards back into learning and all that was too much work.
Lao their time parent and child card system doesn’t work very well.
I like the idea but the interface needs a big overhaul.
Once you get to a certain age you are just done with fflissing with 30 incremental settings in every autist designed software program,
