To give an example of what I'm thinking of...Kingdom of Loathing, Lioden, Flight Rising.

What are some others? I'm sure there's entire genres of browser-based games I've missed.

As far as I understand it, most folks growing up these days do everything on their smart phones or tablets. Like, teachers sometimes have literally gotten entire essays written on a phone. (I would go crazy trying to do that...but people make do with the tech they're given when young, and get good at it.)

So, for some segment of the population--yeah, touch-typing on a physical keyboard is no longer a thing. And even when I was young, people getting truly good at it 80+ wpm was pretty rare. You had to be into writing, either as a hobby, or as an unavoidable part of your job.
