A problem with Keyhero
I've been using Keyhero for some time now. It looks ok, and it's nice to be able to operate (skip quotes, start new ones) without using your mouse. And the quotes can be interesting.
At some point I noticed that my typing speed progress basically plateaued. Then I noticed that Keyhero either has a really weird algorithm calculating typing speeds, or is simply misreporting them.
As you can see in the screenshot, the average speed is stated as 111 wpm, which is a speed that I literally never went below! Looking at the graph you can see that the speed is more likely 140 or 150 wpm.
I was primarily using Keyhero without an account, but then I noticed that every time you reopen Keyhero, it sets the average speed by default as 35 wpm (what?). Maybe the per-game average is somehow tied to the overall average speed (for whatever reason) I thought, maybe that was the issue?
But then I registered an account, and got my average speed from the initial 35 wpm to about 120 wpm (it took a long time, because the 35 wpm already had some average weight to it for whatever reason).
But the problems persisted. The average speed is consistently 20-40 wpm lower than my actual speed.
Has anyone had a similar problem using Keyhero?
Any alternatives?
So I started looking at alternatives, and noticed that a lot of them also misrepresented my average typing speed (a lot less than Keyhero), most of them use CloudFlare, have ugly UI, and tons of spyware.
Any alternatives (maybe even a standalone app instead of a website) that you could recommend?
