I went from 80 to 180 in a few years of typing myself. The only thing I can really add to this is not to just read words but to read a few words ahead of where you are typing. It took me personally a very long time to be able to do that and stay accurate but it helps so much on random brain lag moments I would get.

typing speed is like riding a bike with muscle memory, you dont reaaally forget it

which switches in your opinion are best for typing? ive only been into silents when i type and also tried akko cs silvers for awhile. I was surprised that even though the actuations were very different, the slower silents actually made me more accurate and somewhat faster. Ive been eyeing some tactiles too but feedback has convinced me that linears are still better. any recommendations?

I would recommend trying out ergonomic keyboards the key layout of them can really improve stuff such as type speed my issue with standard boards are the keys like p an comma paired with using shift or cap-lock for capitalization it ruins me so hard keeping me from going beyond 48 WPM

Dygma Defy is my go too personally

Do you have any suggestions on a good clacky switch for both linear / tactile? I currently use BBK and they have a good clack but they can sometimes be heavy after long periods of typing.

So I have been trying to increase my typing speed but it seems like I can't exceed 100wpm no matter how hard I try. I'll have try try working in a weekly typing practice to hone my skills.

I am new to keyboards and i have the apex pro tkl right now but im going to sell it and by a tofu 65 2.0 keyboard kit. i took the switch quiz on your website and i got morandi switches and i was just gonna ask what type of switches are compatible with the morandi?
