Would you want a Neovim typing test plugin?
Not to rip on the idea in any way, but why does everything need to be a neovim plugin? I had an awesome time writing thokr, so I can definitely attest to how much fun writing terminal based typing tests can be, but in my mind it feels kinda awkward. Unless the intent is to learn lua and the neovim api, then by all means, go for it. Just my thoughts!

As a maintainer of a project, do I have to constantly clone forks of my repo to edit PRs?
I'm a first time maintainer of [thokr](https://github.com/coloradocolby/thokr), and so I'm sort of learning the ropes with how best to manage incoming PRs. From my understanding, it seems like I have two options. I can...

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"
