Is it just me or is typing terrible with the wrong type of keyboard i just had 80wpm with a 94 accuracy then it went down to a 70 with my new chromebook...
Sure, the type of keyboard you use, and especially the one you're used to, makes a difference.
Not sure if a keyboard snob, but I changed a lot of keyboards and even when technique is more important, if you type a lot, mechanical keyboards with linear switches are very fast and you won't get tired typing with them.
My average speed now is about 85 WPM, but... it took a lot of practice (started at 45 WPM)

you'll get used to it eventually. The same thing happened to me too.

It's not just you lol. Some people are complete keyboard snobs. I prefer a mech but yeah typing on those chicklet keys sucks. Even on the better ones, to me anyway, it feels like I'm just mashing my fingers into a slab lol.

That happened to me cause I needed another computer but I got used to it.

Hey nice, that's some good progress. I started around 65 and now I hover around 80.
