Spaced repetition systems have gotten better

I like WaniKani because it forces me to type the right answer. When I tried Anki, it was too easy for me to "cheat" and press space for something I "kinda" remembered.

I do agree with the author's phrase of "...a daily ritual of feeling bad about what you’ve forgotten..." though, and would like to try the new algorithm. Is there a way to configure Anki to force you to type the correct answer?

You can set up Anki to force you to type answers; use Basic (type in the answer) when creating cards.

It's possible to batch convert your cards to this format using Anki's "Card Templates" feature.
