As an Anki user (yes I switched!), I would have the cards using a model where the source post is in a separate field, perhaps with the url as another field. I guess if we’re trying to stick to Q/A for compatability with other SRS systems, that’s not a good idea, and what I’m suggesting is a horrific amount of work if you were to do it by hand, because you’d have to redo all the cards. So, maybe these are goals for the long term, in case SRS learning really increases in popularity, and Anki decks become a good vehicle for delivery in of themselves.
Obviously I haven’t actually worked my way through the new additions (or even through most of the existing ones) but I think the cloze deletions are a good change. Overall I think your later cards reflect your increasing wisdom for structuring and formatting the cards.
Having the source post in a separate field seems like a really good idea, and it never crossed my mind before, so thanks! It would be enough work that I’d probably write some script to do it instead of doing it by hand, but it might be worth it to me to do so at some point.
Okay, holy crap Divia. That is a lot of cards.

Thanks and keep up the great work!

You can do it by exporting the deck to csv, then using a emacs macro to automate the transition.
