I started playing chess seriously a little over 1 month ago when I was rated 1080 in rapid, and grinded nearly every day. I'm now 1500, and I'm curious if this improvement speed is slow, average, or fast? For those of you who already went through that range, what was your improvement speed? Also I would appreciate any ideas, tips and advice on how to get to 1800. Ty!

That's very good!
To get to 1800 would be considerably more difficult.
I'd recommend mastering very few openings and always using those, as few as possible at first. Then solve puzzles on a daily basis, concentrate on solving at least a few daily. That kind of small consistent commitment is superior to attempting too many puzzles per day to then quit after a week. Also, improve your knowledge and skills regarding the endgame.
