Maintain ease factor not working
I’ve noticed that every time I hit “again,” the ease factor drops by 20% despite having the "maintain ease factor" option checked. I updated Anki to version 24.06.3 (d678e393) (Python 3.9.18, Qt 5.15.2, PyQt 5.15) about three weeks ago on my PC but I only realised this was happening after checking my stats yesterday. When I looked i had around 80 cards in the 210% and around 30 cards at 230% and the rest of my collection at 250%. It seems like the ease isn’t going below 210% however but I’m not absolutely sure if it could go lower. Is this is intended behavior or is the “maintain ease factor” option supposed to keep it locked at 250%?
When I manually clicked the "Reset Card Ease" button, my whole collection reset back to 250%, so i assume something is wrong and it's not doing its job.
So far ive tried:
24.06.3 qt5 pc and mac
24.06.3 qt6 pc
24.04.1 qt5 pc
nothing works

Any advice on how I could fix this? I really really don't want to click reset ease every time i do a rewiew
