According to google that’s the global average and yeah that tracks. I never learned how to type “proper”, I have a method where I use my thumb, pointer, and middle finger, rather than all 5 on each hand, with my pointer fingers doing most of the work.
Freeform/Hybrid: Using a mix of touch typing and visual searching. People usually develop this naturally for maximum comfort.
According to google.
I’ve always been jelly of people who can do perfect touch typing with all 10 fingers.
I usually average 175ish on my desktop keyboard with about the same accuracy, but this is what I can do on my laptop
Ngl that’s wild, I plateau at around 100wpm and have never been able to get much past that.
I guess this is one benefit I got out of all those years of social isolation during my childhood and becoming a software engineer, I can argue with liberals and do it with speed!

gamertypist using typing.com vs real typist using monkeytype.That’s nutz! Really I bow down to your fastest finger and ultra instinct brain-body connection. How much time did you spend in the

A little over 20 years of just casual use and later being a software engineer, I never really sat down and went “I’m going to practice typing for 30 minutes” I just naturally got better with time because I type so much. They did have those typing classes in grade school back in the early 2000s that everyone had to do, but I was already fairly decent at typing by the time we had to do those… but it did teach me how to properly position my hands on the home row because at that point I was still touch typing.
