For this challenge, I am using the two volumes of Heisig's Remembering Simplified Hanzi covering some 3000 characters. I am going over 20 new characters a day and using ANKI for spaced repetition. This is a brute force way for me to get a solid base of vocabulary in a rather short period of time - 5 months. My other line of attack is to make my way through beginning level videos in FluentU where new vocabulary are used in context and character combinations. FluentU also has an ANKI type review system where old vocabulary items are recycled. I do a combination of review and new materials. I'm finding that as I progress through Heisig, I am finding more and more characters that are also presented in FluentU and the cross-training is helping me to solidify my base character knowledge. So, here I go.

加油! How about using hanzicraft.com to check for High Frequency words? It is fast!

谢谢, Birgit。很有用也很有意思。我学习汉字的时候,我用ArchChinese.com.
