How to master a new layout?
For special symbols, there was actually a dedicated web app; I can't find it atm though a quick search yields results such as typing.io. You can also import such text into an universal typing-practice application such as Amphetype.

Practice typing by retyping ENTIRE novels
I have recently started trying to learn colemak[^3], and came across the great cross-platform tool Amphetype[^1].
You can load in whatever document you want as a source, and it'll randomly select chunks of whatever size you want (i.e. about 200 words-worth). It then gives you analysis of your performance, as well as breaking down what trigrams and words cause you the most trouble.
Combine this with ngram training to get the muscle memory of the most common chunks of english and you can really quickly improve your fluency [^2].

Where is the best place to learn how to type faster?
Keep statistics that show you progress (because of motivation) and allow you to identify areas that you should improve. Specifically, I recommend using Amphetype, because it tracks typing fluency (latency between keystrokes) among other things.

AFAIK Amphetype is by far the best [free] application that lets you import any text you like and tracks a lot of statistics including fluency.

Recover lost text by coredumping Firefox
You can achieve this with native messaging [0] in tridactyl [1]:
https://github.com/tridactyl/tridactyl/blob/850acdf2ca11018e...
It's really cool, I've added an option to open these windows in floating mode automatically in my sway config through another application name iirc. Ans then I press a simple shortcut, and it opens my editor (Helix) with the already entered text and once I close it, it'll transfer the text from that temporary file which was open in your editor to the the input field/textare again.

How to mock builtin function?
Nearly everything on reddit uses reddit-flavored markdown. Backticks for inline code, as you discovered, but indent code blocks with four spaces. I use a browser extension so that I can edit all my comments in Vim, so manipulating this markup, especially code blocks, is easy.
