I am just finding more about this space . Correct me if I am wrong, My understanding is Anki is helpful when you want to remember some extremely detailed information (might even be considered as trivia by some). My usecase isn't like that. I just want to remember the main concepts of everything. Don't want to remember things like who developed that thing or when was it developed.

Have you been able to do this ?

This is only what I use Anki for (main concepts). Just make cards for the concepts. For me, trivia is not worth the effort to remember, concepts + terminology are (terminology helps me understand and talk about the concepts, and search for the trivia when I need it).

Take notes on the main concepts / highlights, then make anki cards (: (I know it's easier said than done)

Shameless plug but I built an app [0] to help with this workflow. You can write note cards in markdown and then review them with spaced repetition.

Could you give an example of a "main concept" you'd like to remember?
