I’ve always been somewhat fast at typing, at least compared to your average hunt and peck person. But I’ve always had to look down.
So if I was typing something from memory, I could go something like 35 to 45wpm. But I could never test that high on typing tests, because I have to look at my hands, not the screen.
So in my downtime at work the last couple months, I’ve been practicing touch typing. This is as far as I’ve gotten, but it’s a nice foundation to build on.


I was in your shoes too. I liked monkeytype but it became boring after a month, then I found https://www.typelit.io/
If you like to read novels as I do, you will love it. You basically have to retype books as you read them.
Interesting! I’ll check it out.
So far I’m still going between keybr and monkeytype. I like the individual key analytics of keybr, but I like the style of monkeytype. 🤷♂️
