Typing test: https://monkeytype.com
I used Unexpected Keyboard

Any tips on how to improve typing speed? (without using word suggestion and autocorrect)

I'm interested in how fast people who swipe type are.

Also, do those keyboards like Thumb Key and FlickBoard have the potential "to be faster" than the standard keyboards?

I just tried it with my swipe keyboard and the website didn't like it at all. It was double entering words randomly when I would otherwise type fine.

I tried it with open board and had the same issue I'm never going back to non swiping but I miss swype everyday

I really wish Microsoft would release the original swype again... Pretty sure I read somewhere that they're the current owners (due to acquisitions).

It carried on working for years and years without updates but finally died recently. I miss gestural copy and paste for sure
