This is very interesting. I’m aware of Anki/flash cards for helping with learning specific topics, but this more general usage that you’re describing is extremely intriguing!
I’m inspired to add something like this to my workflow.
I’d be curious to hear more about how/why you got started with this habit?

Like I guess many people, I also had tried once or twice, but very much the common downloading a couple of other people's decks then stopping a couple of days later. I'm not inplementing what he suggests very much at all in the end - but the idea is at least hinted at there, I think.

I knew a few hundred tunes, her, thousands. I lamented the long road ahead of me, all these tunes to learn, and she said, no no, don't worry, just start by learning the tunes you already know!
