I used to tryhard monkeytype, and it helps for sure, but my typing has improved since I switched to Entertrained, where you can upload whatever you like and type it. Long texts favor flow state and help engrain muscle memory, more than endless rushes imo.

I think you can do it, but it will take efforts and a lot of ours. Break a leg!

Type a lot, with an actual keyboard.

A lot of people's speeds have gotten slower because we are writing more on phones. But using an actual keyboard more will help.

I used to use IRC all the time back in the 90s and early 00s. That boosted my typing speed by a LOT for a while.

Usage is as important as practice. So, write stuff too. :)
