Can you comment on differences?

It supports other character sets--have to join their discord and look to see which ones.

It's compatible with any system a keyboard would be. The OS doesn't know it's not just a USB keyboard.

You would know if it was a chord or not--not every word you type will be one.

I think someone else in comment thread mentioned that it comes preconfigured with 500 chords--these cover the 300 most common English word (some duplicate chords in case you prefer to hit them one way or the other).

It's up to you (or someone else if you import their library) to setup and configure different chords.

This is one of my least favorite parts about the product--it's advertised such that it seems like it is magical but really it is just like have a bunch of macros.

So in this case, you might have h+l to indicate hole, or h+o, or h+e--whatever is most comfortable for you. Hole is not configured out of the box so there is no way to chord it...but it is just like a keyboard in that you can just type it. You can type h, o, l, then e just like you would on a keyboard.

It's this mixing and matching of character entry + chording which makes the device pretty interesting.

If I type the word "hello" on my CharaChorder, I type the keys `helo` which Monkeytype will recognize as an inaccuracy. The CC's internal firmware then recognizes I typed helo and wanted hello and will backspace the word and replace it, much as if you did the same thing.

Do this on enough words where the chord trigger doesn't line up with the chord and you get the ~75% number.

But the final text is 100% accurate

The final text is 100% accurate--it's just what was typed by the keyboard wasn't 100% accurate.

I signed up, and I will be giving this a go.

Just a note, for long email addresses looks like your email template for verification is overflowing a little bit (no big deal though).

As a mechanical engineer, I often need to type things like the degree symbol and with WinCompose it is just Compose, o, o whereas I used to type these using alt codes.

Other common uses are for sub and super scripts (₁¹), bullets (•), and my own custom ones like on for my email, which I set as Compose, e, m (since these days working from home I am constantly logging into lots of things).

May want to check all of the copy

I currently use Dyanlist to manage my "kanban" board with different top level outline groups.

One thing I immediately noticed in the Windows exe is that it wouldn't let me actually confirm any settings changes ("OK" is greyed out, only Cancel is available).

It seems like, at least the first mentioned use case in Actual's documentation, is covered by YNAB already.

Thanks

Really fun, by the way.

Getting this in console:

  main.js:598 Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'stop' of null
      at stop (main.js:598)
      at HTMLDivElement.onclick ((index):38)

One thing I was not sure of--is it possible to use it with arbitrary video sources (say from YouTube, or otherwise?)

I wasn't able to paste in a youtube link after the ?v and make it work so I was wondering.

Really cool idea, love it.
