I assume that's SwiftKey/GBoard typing more than you, though? How fast are you on a computer with autocorrection turned on?
thing is, for my dialect of German, autocorrect is less than useful, so for me, typing Bavarian on a phone keyboard is certainly the fastest at around 150 wpm, trumping english or german on any other board, probably because it exactly matches the way I speak and I've been doing it for 13 years
No idea; does autocorrect even exist in an inbuilt fashion on Windows? I've never really tried using anything like that.
Oh, and here's a one-off test I just did without autocorrection turned on. With a few more tries, I'm sure I could get up to 100+.
