Two words a second… Yes, that may be adequate. I wonder if I could persuade these bastard fingers of mine to relearn to type fast after so many years of touchscreens.
it’s not easy to (re)learn, but it’s possible. i slowly learned to type with 10 fingers over the course of like the last 6 years, just throwing my head against https://www.keybr.com/ once a year or so. the most difficult part for me was typing with my pinkies, but that only took about two hours of focused practice to start with. as with everything in life, you may get good without focused practice, but practice makes perfect.
i still get about 70wpm just tap typing. i never really got how to do swipe typing fast. i heard apparently some swipe keyboards allow you to mostly just swipe in the direction of a key without actually touching the key and that seems like a big speedup, but i never learned it.

With touchscreens I use swipe typing. It’s significantly faster.

I used a ton, but google has been more accurate.
