i finally went over and gave up the romanji completely, it really does make my lessons so much easier that i have to kick myself for not just sitting there and putting more time into learning the characters sooner, but now i find myself really thirsting for the kanji study that i was always putting off

i remember being recommended a website, i don't think that they had an app at the time, but it actually went through and pointed out connections in the pictogram aspect of the kanji to build off of which made things a lot more interactive and memorable for me than some of the apps that i've been trying out recently that all seem pretty "memorize these flashcards" and i sit there feeling like dennis on that family feud ep of always sunny and it's like, they're stealing my thirst and i just want to feel good learning kanji again like i did that time, does anyone know what site i'm talking about? or any apps that actually try and teach you before just endlessly quizzing you?

ty in advance for sharing your knowledge, or if there is another community that you'd recommend that i crosspost, feel welcome in sharing, ty

I think you're thinking of Wanikani? It doesn't have an official app but it has some good third party apps. I've been using Flaming Durtles.

Flaming Durtles.

That's the old version that's no longer maintained and broke somewhat when kana-only stuff was released. Smouldering Durtles is the new app.

That reads like a rick and Morty dialog.

Ah I didn't know that, thank you! I've been using it for a long time and didn't know.
