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"

Practical question about living with 40% split (+ custom keeb identification)
Similar features are supported by several applications such as KMonad. Basically the only reason to prefer a firmware solution is if you often switch systems (physical computers, virtualization, remote desktop) and keeping more of your configuration in the keyboard is simpler ... and I suppose if you run into latency issues with features like tap/hold.

Kinesis Advantage360 ZMK vs SmartSet
A lot of my input customization is better implemented [on Linux] in KMonad and then the usual XKB ... and Emacs (or other text editor).

Warpstone✨
Lower-level software like KMonad has more or less feature parity with QMK.

Is a DIY keeb worth it?
While usually true, much of the same effect can be achieved by using a converter (such as hasu's) that can be built for as little as $15 or so, or in software on the host computer (such as kmonad).

Hewwo, allow me to show you my qute keyboard. (Ferris Bling, choc reds)
if somebody is reading this and not familiar with the way how to mod the laptop (or any other) keeb, check KMonad. very slightly buggy but amazingly powerful. and i think there are some alternatives. havent done the proper research though

Thoughts on this layout?
Couple of months ago I discovered KMonad (win/mac/linux) which kind of changed my life really. That way you can have functionality similar to what QMK offers (was sort of the main inspiration for the creator of KMonad) with literally any keyboard.

Custom keyboard layout
started using Kmonad https://github.com/david-janssen/kmonad seems to be a modern software solution for this, and works well for me.

Autokey help
I don’t know much about AHK, but if it ends up not working you could look into using kmonad instead.

syntax keyword for foo-bar as a whole word
I wanted to make a syntax plugin for kmonad which has a lot of functions with dashes between the names of it (e.g. tap-next-release function). However, when I use syntax keyword kbdFunction tap-next-release it is interpreted as they are separated words and won't highlight any of them for some reason. Is there any way to make them all highlighted as a single keyword?
What are some alternatives?
