Forks can add features or work in a different way. Read the description before you change to another version. Fork detection is incomplete, so other versions can exist.
Provides advanced tools for handling lapse counts and leeches, including leech tag management, with a default Lapse Reverse feature that reduces cards' lapse counts.
Adds browser buttons to move selected new cards into the learning queue, grade cards directly, and reset selected cards to new.
Suspends cards after three consecutive correct answers or three consecutive wrong answers (tagging the latter "Relearn"), with bulk browser checks and configurable thresholds, tags, suspension, and checking options.
Tracks difficult cards using numbered difficulty tags that increase when leech cards are failed and decrease on good answers, with configurable options for leech-only tagging, limits, and review-only increases.
Provides leech and lapse management tools including markers, reversal, custom automated actions, cross-device sync, browser options, reviewer shortcuts, and text macros.
Resets repeatedly missed review cards to configurable learning intervals, optionally moves them to new cards, fully resets lapses, and tags affected cards.
The Leech Balancer plugin for Anki is designed to prevent cards that you are capable of learning from turning into leeches. Even when you consistently answer cards correctly, their lapse count remains unchanged. Sometimes, cards become leeches because of a bad day, a brain fart, or simply because it's been a while since you reviewed them. Especially when you first start to learn a card, there might be many days where you fail it before it starts to click. This doesn't necessarily mean that the card is poor or that the user is unable to learn it.
This plugin reduces the lapse count of a card after you demonstrate consistent success with it. By ensuring that lapses are reduced for cards you consistently answer correctly, this plugin helps you focus on learning rather than penalizing temporary setbacks.
This plugin is ideal for learners who:
Want to rehabilitate potential leech cards that they can learn with consistent effort. Understand that occasional mistakes shouldn't permanently mark a card as problematic.
