I'm pumped for my new hotswap keyboard kit. I've got all of my switches ready.
Sadly, my old linear broke.

I'm surprised you could actually have a decent typing speed on a touch screen.Akumace1 wrote:

zoomers type more on their phones than they do on a keyboard. I feel like an old fart seeing how fast they can type on their phones.
I can't write in English... I have an azerty keyboard wich results in being slow af + doing errors on words containing a lot of letters we don't use much in french... But I'm still above some people *hehehe*
Also it feels weird not being able to see when you type the wrong letter in the middle of a word.
I'm typing on laptop btw. Buy me a mechanical keyboard and I'll go BRRRR.
Anyway I think this survey is a good idea, it allows us to FLEX our typing skills.

German's QWERTZ layout is already pretty weird but the French really outdid them.
Another weird layout is probably the Japanese's or JIS, but it's usually only for the bottom row and the rest of the keyboard is usually pretty normal.
But the space bar is ridiculously small though. I never can get used to it. Though tbf I heard you rarely uses the spacebar while typing in Japanese anyways.
From personal experience, the only time I think you'd use the spacebar in Japanese is if you're a Westie (like me) and you want to type in the one, the only, the mythical:Tad Fibonacci wrote:

I thought that I might join the game aswell. If you need proof or anything like that I can provide a video of me typing.
However there is one issue I find in here. Typing on time is good. but it doesn't really calculate your typing speed accurately. So in case you would like to make this "game" more accurate, I would suggest changing the "rules" a little bit.

It's not really that fast to be honest. I know a lot of people with 180-200 wpm average speed. If you type a lot everyday you will become faster and faster, that's all about it.ClevelandsMyBro wrote:

I think we're a little too deep to change the ruleset now, but for future reference, what would you suggest for a better ruleset?TheKubaX wrote:

1. Use CPM (Characters per minute) instead of WPM (words per minute). CPM measurement is way more accurate because words can be very short (~3 letters) or very long (7+ letters). Thus with enough luck your result can be really boosted if you had a lot of short words. In most cases WPM and CPM have a "linear" connection, but I still find this method more accurate.
2. Instead of typing random words on time, I find it way better to test and try typing a quote (A normal text). The thing is, here it comes to the preference. I myself find it much better than typing random words on time.
(In the end the result will be the same. Fast people will be faster than others, meanwhile slow people will be slower. It's just that instead of having, let's say 130wpm you might have for example 110wpm)
I know people that think the same way. But truth be told I would have to talk to others to confirm that.
Nothing else that cross my mind right now, but if there will be anything else I will let you know.
I can't really type random words that fast. It is way slower than how I usually type (on PC).
Speed: 59 wpm
BTW my typing speed for English is one of the fastest in my class somehow.

I honestly don't even know how I did this. I can usually hit 90-100 WPM when doing 30 second tests, but I always run out of stamina on 60 second tests. Somehow managed to not run out of stamina this time. My average speed is up to the mid 80's for 60 second tests which is nice.

i'm slow lmao
Might as well get my score to be verified.
I can't type any faster cause it's cold and my hands are freezing.
After a few tries I couldn't type accurately anymore lol.

Another PB by 1WPM. It's basically RNG whether I type fast or not.

Finally got some progress. I've been getting my average speed up over the past month, but this is the first time I've PB'd since last month.
I just got this, I couldn't get a screenshot because I had it set to show CPM instead of WPM.
Improved by exactly 6 wpm, lets gooo.

Taking maybe 15 minutes out of your day to practice on monkeytype will definitely improve your skill over time.ClevelandsMyBro wrote:

Not necessarily as keyboards are mostly preference, but mechanical keyboards will always be significantly better for typing over your standard membrane boards.Yhuan Debeste wrote:

Specific switch types/keycaps are completely preference and you should try researching that on your own. I use Gateron Red switches myself but don't really like them.
i'm kind of mediocre, but at least i can take #21 momentarily.
i have an average range of 80-85 WPM, and this is around what i'd imagine my top performance being thus far.

so i might've absolutely crushed my earlier typing speeds. that's fun.
my current average range seems to be set around 111-144 WPM depending on how i'm feeling and how comfortable i am with my muscle memory, focus, and the keyboard at given moment. top speed tends to hit around 188 WPM in very rare instances.
i'll take that #2 spot, thank you.
how the fuck did i get here...?

I got a new PB the other day. My progress has been slowing down a bit recently, but I'm still getting more and more consistent. My average speed is about 105 now.
ShinRun, Asian Warlord, uwu_playz, and wocan, you guys need to do a 60 second test, not a 30 second test.

My typing is still slow.
it appears i've grown stagnant now, though. i've been stuck at a slump between 122-144 WPM :'(Penguin wrote:

granted, i'm kind of sleepy. my focus is wandering, and my reflexes are pretty dull at the moment.
this is what i usually have now.

update #1: lmao, i really tripped up a lot as this went on.
I can't type nearly as fast as you guys can. But still, faster than anyone in my class.
