What is the current best practice for multiple users with distinct card decks? I've been using Mnemosyne for a while, I love it, and my wife is now wanting to get on the train. The problem is that we want to have almost entirely separate sets of cards. For example, I'm learning her mother tongue, so I have multiple decks related to that, and she's obviously not going to be interested in those at all. We have quite a few disparate interests that would drive us to different card decks. Moreover, we obviously do not want any statistics to be shared for the decks we do have in common.

We have only one Windows PC that is the base point for me right now. I rarely interact with it directly, mostly using the Android app on a daily basis, only going to the PC to make alterations to the cards and such. I'm comfortable with syncing for this purpose. She's almost certainly going to want to do the same. Worst case, I can just remember to check/uncheck all of the relevant decks every single time I go to the PC, but knowing the wife, she's going to be annoyed enough by something like that that she'll end up just not using it at all.

Any other solutions?

Hi, 

I guess the easiest would be to have a separate Windows account for your wife, especially if she also wants to sync to her phone. That way, all the data is nicely separated, and you don't risk messing up by accidentally opening the wrong database. 

Cheers, 

Peter
