To give an example of what I'm thinking of...Kingdom of Loathing, Lioden, Flight Rising.

What are some others? I'm sure there's entire genres of browser-based games I've missed.

Not a game but still a good time killer learning to type faster and faster https://www.keybr.com/

Your all time top speed beats 99.42% of all other people.

Your all time average speed beats 95.57% of all other people.

Do not many people use this website, or is 105 wpm top speed and 87 wpm average speed actually that crazy? I just learned to type like this in high school.

As far as I understand it, most folks growing up these days do everything on their smart phones or tablets. Like, teachers sometimes have literally gotten entire essays written on a phone. (I would go crazy trying to do that...but people make do with the tech they're given when young, and get good at it.)

So, for some segment of the population--yeah, touch-typing on a physical keyboard is no longer a thing. And even when I was young, people getting truly good at it 80+ wpm was pretty rare. You had to be into writing, either as a hobby, or as an unavoidable part of your job.
