If you think the Easy button sends cards too far into the future, you can go into the deck settings, and change the Easy Interval to <4.
You may also want to consider turning on FSRS in the same settings, to make Anki learn the optimal interval for a given retention probability you want to hit.
I don’t know what add-ons you may have been using in high school. It would make sense though that you would find it easier to memorize stuff, especially languages, when you were younger though. So maybe that’s a confounder here.
