Comments on new progress mechanics?
🕑 Added 2019-11-26 17:02:29 +0000 UTCYou may have noticed some significant changes in the notifications, cards, and progress displays in the last few weeks. We've been testing and iterating on a new set of designs with new users for months, and we expanded those new behaviors to older users a few weeks ago.
We'd be curious to hear your high-level impressions of the new behaviors you've been seeing. In fact, even just hearing what changes you've actually noticed is helpful.
If the new behaviors seem totally enigmatic, that may be because we added a bunch of material to the first few review sessions and emails explaining it—which of course, our older users mostly wouldn't see. Apologies if that's caused confusion!
Thanks,
Andy

It's gives you a sense of progress while reading, similarly to these progress reading bars some platforms add on the top of the page. But I'm not sure if it' not a little misleading since the intervals between the dots are the same (distance between 5 & 10 days, same as distance between 1 and 2 months). It might just be me, I'm more used to seeing different representation of the spaced repetition interval curve, either as a forgetting curve (?) like this: http://bit.ly/2ElbusD Or like this: http://bit.ly/2EqmdSA
They are a nice improvement. I appreciate a visual of my progress.
