Flashcards, flashcards everywhere (not really)

Hey guys, I know that this sub is no fan of flashcards whatsoever, but I still want to post my experience.<br><br>I've been learning German for 2 years now, and I can say that I'm pretty proficient, even fluent in the language. I'm sure that my German is better than most Germans my age.<br><br>The most useful resource to me during my language learning was a flashcard app. All my vocab is in flashcards, and I know almost every word in the language. I'm sure of it.<br><br>I know that this isn't the general opinion in this sub, and I'm not trying to change anyone's mind. This is my experience.<br><br>So, is this sub the only one on chambers that's not a fan of flashcards? I've been to a ton of other language learning subs, and they all seem to like flashcards. Why's that?
