I have a friend who does around 50wpm with his index and middle finger. I use all fingers and average about 70wpm. I learnt how to use all my fingers about 1 week ago so its decent

That's really fast man, I've switched to all finger typing and took like 3 months to get back to the old typing speed (50 WPM) and now I'm slowly increasing my speed over that (57 wpm average)

Hey guys, wondering what sot of speeds can be acchieved on two fingers per hand. Anyone's got some sweets WPM's to show? I wonder if the speed ceiling is hgigher on 10f typing . I would assume so.

Yeah, I was on a break and I banged out so much practice, typing essays for homework, playing games and typing in chat etc

I never typed with 2 fingers per hand, but I did type with 1 finger per hand, averaging ~50WPM. I once got 104 wpm typing "A Tale of Two Cities" with 1 finger per hand.

Oh I couldn't do this ever. I've always typed with 2x2f, exception being the left thumb I use for the space-bar sometimes. I'm trying to get to a consistent 100WPM, but it will take a little while :D

https://youtu.be/c9… this was a trending video a bit ago, although he is quite inaccurate. And I am certain that typing with 10 fingers will always have a higher speed ceiling.

I type with 3 fingers on my right hand and 2 on the left on average sometimes more depending on the text but hardly ever exception being shift ' " ? / and enter I don't use my thumbs for pressing the spacebar and I type about 117 on here 120-130 on most other sites.

There's a video on youtube of a scientific study that proves that amount of fingers does not equal speed. You can type amazingly fast with only 2 fingers. The key to speed is consistancy. The study showed that the fastest typists were the ones who typed the same key with the same finger every time.
What I would say is that typing with all your fingers will help you type more comfortably.
I will always recomend to learn to touch type, that will increase your productivity a lot, whether it is using your own technique or home-row; if you feel lazy and don't want to spend a lot of time developing a technique of your own I highly recommend the latter.
