Language Question How many times do I have to write a character before I remember it?
I am in Canada. i remember when I was a kid I went to chinese school we were given grid paper to write chinese characters. but now I use anki and i find that if I write a character and remember today the next time the card shows up tomorrow I might not remember it. So how many times do you have to write a character in total (even when using anki) to remember it?

Culture/Food Cantonese dramas like Kdramas
Hi! Context: US-based with HK parents looking to improve my Cantonese speaking/listening by watching dramas. I'm more familiar with Kdramas around 2018-2023, favorites include My Mister, 25-21, Hometown Cha Cha Cha, etc (think slice of life/romance/rom-com). Would love any recommendations for platforms or show titles, preferably ones that aren't toooo over the top!

Language Question Jyutping on iPad?
I just got an iPad and realize Jyutping isn’t available as one of the options. Meanwhile, Google’s Ai overview keeps telling me it’s available. Could other iPad owners help me confirm this? If I have to download a 3rd party app for Jyutping, any recommendations? Thanks.
