How I Doubled My Reading Speed with RSVP (Real Experience)

Struggled with endless articles and reports eating up hours at 200-250 WPM? Discovered RSVP (Rapid Serial Visual Presentation): words flash one by one at a fixed point, no eye jumps across lines.

After a week of practice, I'm comfortably at 400-500 WPM. Key: ORP highlighting (optimal focus point in each word) + auto-parsing clean content without ads.

If you want to try it out, here's a simple free extension I use: Speed Reader Chrome extension. Works on any site, adjustable speed, dark mode.

Anyone tried RSVP or similar hacks? Share your results—curious to compare!
