I wish I’d had this when I was learning Japanese. domenic.me/fsrs/ So much wasted time reviewing cards unnecessarily, taking time away from learning new words. WaniKani is egregiously bad - I was (re)learning kanji very rapidly but soon hit a limit thanks to their terrible SRS algorithm and gave up

Meta is scared of Pixelfed. This is the biggest endorsement of Pixelfed that I've seen so far.
CONFIRMED: Facebook has *banned* anyone from linking to Pixelfed. #MetaBlockingPixelfed
I just tried posting a message on Facebook that reads: "Anyone here using Pixelfed?" with a link to Pixelfed.Social
Within *seconds* I got a post saying my post was banned.
Screenshots below.
