Might be a good idea to try to explain how your project is different from other more well-known ones that let you practice typing using public domain literature. TypeLit is the one that comes immediately to mind.
Gamified elements for some reason are an incentive for me. Combos when you get long streaks without errors. Can load epubs and plain text. Options for typing letters/punctuation/case. I actually got the idea from typ.ing, but there was stuff that I wanted to see that I couldn't find on other typing sites. Also I kept losing progress which I found to be really frustrating
This is fun, thanks for the note on "hard mode" (maybe call it Settings instead of Appearance).
It was extremely annoying to have it auto skip punctuation. Maybe you should just ignore the keypresses for punctuation marks instead of showing a red indicator for the next character.
Hey, I also made one of these: https://touchtype.page
A bit annoyed I picked Moby Dick to try it out, that thing is looong.

No email required, it's just to save progress across devices.
Why would one do that? what are the benefits instead of just reading?
It's kind of like an active way of reading, also like others said, you're forced to read ever word, painstakingly. I find it fun first and foremost
I have troubles doing nothing besides reading so typing might help me ease into the story I guess. Will try this out!
I don’t know about typing but writing things by hand definitely commits them to memory in a much stronger way than just saying them out loud.
I imagine that typing isn’t as effective but is still way more effective than just reading because you really have to consider every single word.
Hey thank's Carl Jung's labtek. I'm 22% through Memories, Dreams, Reflections. Great read so far
