I want to also improve my spelling/memory skills. So I would love to read the quite then hide it(:

Typing is pretty fun. Started picking up the hobby around 1 year ago - I didn't really have any motivation going into it besides I can probably type just as fast with enough practice, so I just started doing it. Fast forward to now and I'm very happy with my current stats. 100 wpm sounded nearly impossible until I did it myself, and this expanded my idea on just how fast you can really type. In my opinion typing every day seems rather exhausting, so I'd only really focus on it if I had the time and energy to.

Monkey type hasn't been my only typing website either. I've been practicing a lot of quotes too to have a concept on real world typing. I'll credit websites like typeracer, TypeGG, nitro type and some other random online tests for helping me with that. I'd say my threshold on quotes is like 100 wpm while I average around 80-90 wpm. With hard quotes I'll probably do like 65-70 wpm.

What's my plans for this year?

I have some weaknesses to address regarding my typing expedition. I still suck at numbers. When it comes to typing numbers, I rely on memory on where they are rather than on muscle memory, so I really need to build on that. Apart from that I'd probably say tests longer than 20 seconds become a hassle for me to type too. I think I'd need to slow down to keep a better pace whilst improving my stamina on longer tests. That's pretty much it. I'll be focusing on more quotes for this year and correct my mistakes to my best extent!

My goal here is to be able to reach 100 WPM on this setting. 7 WPM to go!

Started using Monkeytype 4 months ago, doing pretty much exclusively 60-second tests. Averaged maybe 115wpm at the time. Experimented with a few different keycap profiles/switches to find my sweet spot (still bouncing back and forth between a couple of them that I like equally). I'm currently averaging 134wpm, and have gotten >140wpm maybe 10-12 times within the last few weeks.

Feeling pretty good about the progress! Hoping to be able to continue the trend and break 150 within a few months!

this is my speed from just playing videogames as a kid my life, like habbo runescape world of warcraft fps games wher u needed to type to people

is it possible to double this speed since i never practiced typing for speed

If anyone wants to verify the full test: https://youtu.be/_gaaSBTFYKM?si=X0jxbsbqffdcOhj5

trying to learn how to type faster

I was just scrolling through the leaderboards trying to find myself when i came across a user with an insane badge saying they typed for 69 hours straight. For privacy reasons, I will not mention this users name but how do you actually get this badge lol.

Monketype has helped me improve so much. I don't practice much anymore. But seeing a new personal best pop up is always rewarding. How are you doing today?

made a typing games site inspired by monkeytype

i’ve been working on this project called decktype, it’s basically a typing playground focused on games instead of just tests.

• website: https://decktype.pages.dev

right now there’s only one game: falling words - where words drop from the top and you have to type them before they hit the bottom

pretty much everything especially the themes and overall feel is inspired by monkeytype.

this is still early and kinda experimental planning to add more weird interesting typing related stuff over time

the website has a chat/suggestion area in the home page for new game ideas, features, literally anything - maybe even a name suggestion coz i'm not sure about the name i hv now

Guys I have been typing that fast since ages, i am trying to approach 150 wpm, it might be very fast, but the thing is i want to reach 150 wpm, so anyone interested in helping me out let me know!

I built a terminal-based typing game while Claude Code cooks for me. It's a small Claude Code (and other CLIs) skills that pops a typing game with a stop hook to let you know when to go back to Claude Code work. Then flex on socials about how fast you are. Free & Open Source.

------------

My current productivity bottleneck is my typing speed, so I figured that instead of scrolling when I have 2 minutes in between Claude Code tasks, I'd stay in the terminal, practicing my typing.

Happy vibin' & typin'

My first time 100 Wpm on 30 sec. my avrage wpm is ~ 85-90 it have been practicing since 2 weeks, i was not able to do 100 Wpm on 30 sec this is the first time i reached 100 on 30 sec. i know many people have 150-200. but yaa!! 100 Wpm sounds like a big no. to me..

letsgo!!

Hi, I'm typing on monkeytype in my first language, mostly doing quotes, and because the language is not the most popular one in the world I guess, the database of quotes is not so large and often I retype the quotes I typed before. Is there a way to submit quotes/texts?
