Do you know how people of your target language do things differently in casual text messages/on the internet?

A good example: russians often drop the double dot from smiling face )))) vs. :)))) or how in some middle-eastern languages they write hhhhhhh instead of the "hahaha".

I've been obsessed with building the perfect Anki deck from big frequency dictionaries, corpora, and model exams. It's probably a waste of time lol

I started to go down this rabbit hole with templating/media but recognized it was getting a little out of control. It's funny how I stuck with an obsolete SRS program for years because I didn't want to deal with how complicated Anki seemed, I coincidentally take a refresher course on HTML/CSS/JS last year and now I'm ready to go digging into card code. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Still a little interested in attaching images though...
