Disregard bad advice frequently posted in these threads. Things to avoid:
・Itazuraneko. Outdated, hard to follow, confusing for beginners.
・Anime cards (the guide by someone named QM). It recommends words cards, which are proven to be less effective than targeted sentence cards (TSCs).
・Core 2.3k. It is based on newspapers from early 90s and additionally sorted in a way that makes learning harder. Try Ankidrone Starter Pack instead.
・Anacreon. Anacreon is an infamous spammer. He constantly hijacks our threads to shill his shit.
・Tadoku. A commercial site that pushes stories for learners (basically scam). The core principle of immersion learning is to consume native content. Just watch more anime or read manga.
・tmw/The moe way. Patreon scam run by a turkish tranny.
・Discord servers. Discord is malware that runs a data mining operation. DJT has moved to Matrix.
・Refold, Migaku and other for-profit companies who want to scam you.
・Visual novels. Most of them are proprietary ー https://www.gnu.org/proprietary/
