My friends and I are all giving up our streaks. One is over 650. We don’t cross picket lines.
In the wordle world, this is almost a big enough deal to make an x, formerly known as twitter, burner account and post on the NYT page. Just a little jab in the stomach that other ppl will see
Nah won’t catch me dead using Musk’s platform.
I also fully support this boundary!
damn that’s dedication! I’m not sure if I could give that streak up.
It’s a dumb number on a screen versus these peoples’ livelihoods. Not even a hard choice.
It’s a bummer today of all days; I could really use any distraction. But you don’t cross a picket line, power to the striking workers.

Play the Britannica Octordle instead? https://www.britannica.com/games/octordle/
I saw someone share this earlier today also as another option!
Periodic reminder in light of the #nyt strike that #wordle started life as a free, vanilla javascript website with no DRM and not owned by the nyt, and I packed it into a single html file that you can download and run offline or from any site, like this: https://jon-e.net/wordle.html

If anyone has an alternative for the connections game I really liked that one :)
https://redactle.net/ is a fun one
As long as they don’t ask me to break my Duolingo streak it’s all good. I‘m scared of that owl
LARGE was an absolutely terrible guess if you already know that R can’t be in the third spot
terrible only if you want to minimise guess number, pretty good if you want to gather more information (and not lose altogether)
LAGER would give the same information but also have a shot at being correct
