SRS app or website

Yeah, I definitely understand not wanting to get into some technical exercise. If you use Anki as it is, it will be perfectly usable, just an uninspiring black on white (or vice versa in dark mode). All you would (optionally) need to do in install the Japanese plugin if you want to generate automatic furigana readings, and/or the TTS plugin if you want robots to read the words out loud for you (useful). Otherwise, out of the box it works just fine.

The hardest part is understanding the SRS intervals and adapting them to your preferences. I got this all figured out from one 30min Youtube video, and basically copied the settings presented, as they more or less match some popular research on memory. It’s an interesting thing to watch either way, especially the last bits on review frequency and retention. I ended up spacing out my intervals quite a bit compared to WK, so we’ll see if it works.
