SuperMemo SM-18 Algorithm is Much Better Than FSRS: Practical Difference

Описание: Zander and I discuss our experience and anecdotal evidence after using both SuperMemo and Anki with FSRS for many years. We provide a few practical differences without digging into math or machine learning, and why you should not believe FSRS is the best scheduler out there, at least for now.
