What have you been using? I’ve been on and off with Japanese for a while, was using some Anki decks but was getting frustrated with it. Now for the last while I’ve been using JPDB, which I like, but wish I could customize more. I also wish I could use it offline, because sometimes it lags when I’m hitting an answer, and that gets annoying.
Currently Anki for flashcards, Tobira for grammar and miscellaneous other practice, the Tadoku graded readers for reading practice and the Japanese with Shun podcast for listening (my listening comprehension is behind).
Anki certainly has a learning curve, but it can’t be beat for content and flexibility. However, I have a background in web design, which really helps a lot with making the most of it. My Anki workflow is rather customized at this point.
Yep, been hitting Japanese pretty hard the last eight months and finally feeling like I’m making progress on that intermediate plateau.

I’ll check out your community. I could use the encouragement.
I second the community recommendation! :)
Always great to see the progress everyone’s making. It helps keep my motivation up.
