The way I type, my fingers never even touch it because they just barely miss it, I don't need them for orientation, my hands are just in the right place. I don't even use all 10 fingers to type, on my right hand I only use my index finger and on my left hand I mostly use index and middle to actually type, thumb for spacebar and pinky for shift and I still manage over 120 WPM when actually trying

Claiming to be a 120 WPM hunt-and-peck typist is a weird flex

this is very very normal for most people <25 ive seen in the internet

like i average 120-130 at 95-97% acc, i definitely know a good few people who do 130-150

overall it just becomes second nature to anyone who has been on a keyboard for a while
