Are there any competitive typers here? I touch type around 105 WPM, peaking sometimes at 140. I'd like to get faster into the range of 200-300 as I see other people typing at on leaderboards, but I don't know what I should do. Should I switch away from QWERTY? Should I use a different type of keyboard? Should I be doing any mental tricks or is it just raw practice?

You should be using steno or some kind of briefing system. I hang out in the plover discord and bunch of the people there are over 150 on a slow day.

Just need to ditch character based input, it's not easy though.
