nerd-dictation VS monkeytype

nerd-dictation

There's no built-in way of doing this in GNOME, but you might already get a bit further with tools like https://github.com/ideasman42/nerd-dictation

I'm not familiar with Talon so I don't know if this is a suitable suggestion but nerd-dictation seemed to have been well received here when it was last promoted and it looks like it's still in active development.

TBF Microsoft dropped IE, windows phone... that is not uncommon. But the OP is right, maybe not much for voice control but for dictation certainly. The FLOSS community is always far behind and thus always struggle with new technologies. We should be prepared. Since you've mentioned small open source project here's a demo of NerdDitaction. FYI Linux do have mobile devices developing.

Yeah you get me. I did have RSI which was amplified by my other issue, but it was that issue that progressed and why can't type now, not RSI. I'd be interested in hearing about using numen in combination with typing, but it's likely not ideal yet. Maybe just using speech to text for some things could help? It's not my project but there's: https://github.com/ideasman42/nerd-dictation that uses the same speech recognition as numen.

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.

Check out these words. These are 10 words from the English 1k word list on monkeytype.com

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...

Average typing speed when typing a >50 word long quote. If you don't know your average typing speed, you can test yourself at https://monkeytype.com/.

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.

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.

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"
