For me personally, I like the simplicity of doing Aeropress. The taste is less of a v60 pourover, but its faster.

I’m mostly following the James Hoffman technique, but some stuff I felt made a difference for me are:

rinsing the filter before use - somehow a wet filter finishes faster than an unwashed one
pour around the edge of the cone, vs directly in the middle
good grind consistency - I’m using a 1zpresso grinder, and the consistency I get now makes the extraction a lot faster.

In a pinch, if there extraction is too slow with your current set up, try going (a lot) coarser and see if the results taste better
