Wordle or any other alternative. It's been 130 days the acquisition of Wordle by the NYT

    Yep, it's first thing I do when I wake up every morning along with Heardle[0] and most recently Moviedle[1]. Sometimes I'll do a Quordle[2] too.

    Yes, my younger sister plays wordle and we send each other our results. We normally exchange a few messages off the back of it while previously we communicated more sporadically. It's been a nice part of my daily routine, but I'm not sure if I'd play as regularly if it wasn't for that.

    Nah. I stopped playing after the web app that I saved on my iPhone’s Home Screen stopped working shortly after the NYT takeover. Actually, I think it still ‘worked’ but it changed to not be as minimalistic as the original Wordle web app and it lost my progress so I just dropped it. No hard feelings, I had fun with the game while it lasted.

    Still? Never was. Never used it.

    Yep. Do it every night at midnight. It's fun, low-stakes, and hard to lose.

    Yes, me and my wife play every night after the kids go to bed.

    Yes, it is. But I have been debating if I should stop.
