Is it possible to have a magic key for same finger skipgrams?
So it's possible to have a magic key for same-finger bigrams (SFBs) as seen in Magic Sturdy.

looking for bespoke solution
Regarding chording, you might find inspiration in the chording schemes in Ikcelaks’ Magic Sturdy, the Ardux project, and precondition's "steno-lite" combos.

Have you tried "Repeat last mod"?
Beyond reversing, Ikcelaks's Magic Sturdy layout is a showcase of what else can be done. It is a layout where the Alternate Repeat key is placed in easy reach on the right index finger. This is the "magic" in Magic Sturdy. This key is configured to remove SFBs and type common n-grams, or potentially do anything else you want: "this key can be fully dynamic based on the last key press and need not be constrained to logically reversing that keypress." I've been trying Magic Sturdy for the past few weeks, and definitely this is a fun idea.

Starting my journey with colemak. This title took me about 2 minutes and cost me a headache.
I've lately been experimenting with variations on Oxey's Sturdy, which is an attractive layout for an unusually strong combination of low redirects and high rolls, yet keeping SFBs and pinky use low. A very interesting mod that I'm using now is Ikcelaks's Magic Sturdy. It incorporates the Alternate Repeat Key as a "magic" key whose function is determined adaptively based on the previous key. This is leveraged to get around the highest SFBs and as a shortcut to type common n-grams.

Show HN: I made a game to improve my typing speed
It's gotta be fun, and Typing for the Dead is a good one.

More recently though, there's https://monkeytype.com/ and https://play.typeracer.com/ which are fun little breaks during the day.

Been at this for 6 months, need advice
Try a small change and sometimes a drastic one (like dropping a column or row) and mash keybr.com and monkeytype.com until it feels natural, or not then revert. And if I revert I often try again a few weeks later...

Why my neovim lags so much?
It works normal in small projects but when I open for example monkeytype and edit a file it lags so much that sometime it crashes.

Keyboard Shortcut Database Website
I had a really useful website bookmarked in the past, which let you enter a keyboard shortcut and see what programs used that same shortcut. It was really helpful if I needed to create a keyboard shortcut that I knew wouldn't conflict with Windows or any other programs I used. I feel like the site's color scheme was dark gray and yellow/orange, similar to monkeytype.com, but I could be misremembering.

Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing
If you are a 2 finger typist and also think people are "obsessing over WPM" because they're wanting to utilize their own tools to the fullest advantage, that sounds like some mental block kind of thing.
If you can type at least 80 consistently then thats probably would I imagine the dividing line is between "flow/concentration not breaking" and "breaks constantly"
