Hey thanks for the support! I'll definitely be adding some way of uploading your own stuff in the future, though it may not be ready for a while yet. Thanks again!


Hello -- I've actually been working on this exact feature (well, ctrl+backspace at least) and will be adding it to the site in the next couple days. Thanks!


Hello! I've just changed the way errors are displayed (it'll show what you actually typed in red if it was wrong). Maybe seeing what the site thinks you typed wrong will help us troubleshoot. Btw, Chrome seems to work for a lot of people, if you don't mind using it


Hello! Key combos aren't super well supported at the moment. I'll make sure to get it fixed in a future update though. Thanks!


Hello! As a matter of fact, I just changed the way mistypes are handled to be like this. There will be options for less obtrusive cursors coming soon as well, which I hope should fix the need for larger text.


Hello! WPM is calculated by splitting space characters, and is tracked on a per page bases. If you're cursor is on the first character of a page, it's not tracking your WPM, so that's where you would take a break. Thanks!


Hello! Sorry the site isn't more keyboard friendly (which is indeed ironic). Plus I imagine if you were to get into the typing portion of the site, you may get stuck, since keystrokes register differently in there. I'll see if I can't make things work smoother for keyboard only users at some point in the future. Thanks!


Great! For the actualy typing portion I have added an exclude rule for vimium for the https://www.typelit.io/typing-console/* and it works fine.


Hello -- if I come across a good compilation of famous speeches I'll add them. Loading your own content is coming in a future update, too. Thanks!


Thanks! A@175g.com if you have an email update list!


Hello! A text darkness slider is a great idea -- I may implement that in a future update.

You should be able to backspace all the way back up the page. If backspace isn't working for you, feel free to let me know which browser and OS you're using, and if you're using any extensions that might effect backspace functionality. Thanks!


Hello -- currently you have to type a whole page. Going to add an option to change it to after each word probably this week. Thanks!
