Every single failure on r/learnjapanese has the core of "anki is too boring"
Would you rather do root memorization? Cuz I fucking wouldn't. I don't have twelve years to learn kanji like Japanese people.

@Kyonko802 I just installed the anki pokemon mod and it's no longer boring for me 
most people are just too stupid to learn anything new at all or lack the drive for it. with redditors, I would assume it's both and they just like to complain.

i mean to be fair language learning can be pretty rough to start out
7 years of classical latin and I still sucked when I was ""proficient"" because hell I just drilled vocab most of the time because when you dont have a good core vocab you cant do anything interesting

@theorytoe @80085 yes it's a little boring, but if you don't do the boring part you won't get anywhere
@Kyonko802 @theorytoe @80085
Just don't be like my mom.
She spent 20 years doing the boring part of English, but she refuses to actually engage with the language (Watching TV etc...), so she is completely stuck in the "I take 5 minutes and 10 corrections to form a sentence" stage.
@LukeAlmighty @theorytoe @80085 Nah I ordered three of my favorite manga in Japanese as soon as I finished the base anki deck

SHE COMPLETED DUOLINGO FFS!!! 
I don't get it...
@LukeAlmighty @Kyonko802 @theorytoe @80085 Let's be honest, Duolingo ain't great for learning. Especially in recent years 
@LukeAlmighty @theorytoe @80085 duolingo is absolute trash now. Especially with Japanese. A couple months after I started using it they gutted their lessons and almost completely removed kanji and all the grammar guides, making their lessons completely fucking worthless.
And I hear the other languages got gutted in different ways too. It isn't built to actually teach you languages anymore.
