Last time I checked, Anki was nowhere near SuperMemo in regards to incremental reading features. Especially not with FSRS.
SuperMemo is actually almost the only reason I still keep a Windows VM.

Another key point: its dependencies on native but very outdated Windows libraries.
No plugins, no way to modify or improve anything. Fully closed source. Feature request? Wait months until your email shows up in Dr. Wozniak's queue for incremental-reading of his emails. And one year until maybe the next version of SuperMemo. Or write the request on his wiki, to be debated by community members. It's so impractical.
Which is a thing I experience quite often. I love the idea of open source, but often the proprietary products are „better“ for what I need them.
Anki way makes more sense.
When I need to read and learn, it needs to happen within a timeframe. Not "some day" when it shows up in my queue again.
If you have deadlines for certain knowledge, then this can still be managed; it just requires some manual overruling via 'advance' or subset reviews.
You can also put stuff in something called "pending queue" and then just pull it from there once you're ready for it.
Only for the subsequent repetitions the algorithm will take over. This is like reviewing notes basically.
Also, you can manually advance repetitions if needed, for example before an exam.
It works very well for me and I constantly have to (and want to) learn lots of stuff.
This video [1] is the second step of the process, the first would be making that extract from an article or larger chunk of text imported. Often, I read a little bit of the text and just delete the whole entry if it turns out not to be good/interesting/useful to me.
You can check my YouTube channel, 'Pleasurable Learning', for a course and many videos on how to get started with incremental reading.
I don't use it for things like e-mail, news or fiction.
