> Most of my cards are handwritten by me and accommodate my brain.

I'm guessing from all the talk about Anki that people are missing this part. I think these frictionless, digital replacements for note cards are solving the wrong problem. You're never going to spend more time on a given flashcard, and better absorb the information on it, than the first time, when you're sitting there making the thing. Making this step as brief as possible is a bad idea.

I think it's better not to fall in love with any single flashcard. Mature them and forget about them. You're not trying to learn flashcards, you're trying to learn facts and skills.

I'd say Anki has more friction that writing physical cards though
