I do want to keep a reference to the interval length there, and not just subjective ‘hard’, ‘easy’.
Note that ‘the interval was too long’ does not make any explicit promises to the user that the next interval will be shorter, it’s just a way for the user to indicate that the *previous* interval was too long. So, strictly speaking, there’s no contradiction in the tooltips ☺ Cheers, Peter From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sdk 25k Sent: 15 August 2017 10:38 To: mnemosyne-proj-users <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [mnemosyne-proj-users] problem with retention time What if use such tooltips: 2 - "this card was extremely hard"; 3 - "this card was hard"; 4 - "this card wasn't hard"; 5 - "this card was easy"? Or something like this, with no reference to the time interval, just subjective feeling of the user about the card. вторник, 15 августа 2017 г., 10:34:11 UTC+3 пользователь Peter Bienstman написал: I agree, but there’s only so much text you can put in a tooltip… Peter From: [email protected]<javascript:> [mailto:[email protected]<javascript:>] On Behalf Of Sdk 25k Sent: 15 August 2017 09:33 To: mnemosyne-proj-users <[email protected]<javascript:>> Subject: Re: [mnemosyne-proj-users] problem with retention time That is interesting! Thank you. But it says "interval was probably too long" in the description of button "3". It sounds as a contradiction to the real meaning of this button, since "3" will make "too long" interval longer. вторник, 15 августа 2017 г., 10:01:33 UTC+3 пользователь Peter Bienstman написал: Hi, Intervals always increase if you give cards a grade 2 or higher. This has been a feature of the SM2 algorithm ever since it was introduced a few decades ago. That’s one of the ways SM2 manages your workload.

Thus, a card I repeated a month ago, if I ask the program to remind me this card earlier ("2" or "3"), the card will be scheduled in a few months. No matter what I choose (2-5) next repetition will be after a longer time than the previous one. It wasn't so until recently.
