Nothing. Anki is great. But I prefer to have general notes in a text only format that I manage via NValt or simply desktop search. Anki gives me an own file format and forces me to manage my knowledge just within Anki.

It's easy to write plugins for anki though. Anki's data is just stored in a sqlite db.
Thanks for the idea. I will look into that.
My 2c would be to have a special notation in your text notes that labels the data you want to study later. then just parse that and combined with anki's cards you can generate decks easily.
