Striking New York Times tech workers ask people not to play Wordle or other NYT games
My friends and I are all giving up our streaks. One is over 650. We don't cross picket lines.
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.
A plug for the other lovely daily games: !dailygames@lemmy.zip
And for my favorite one: https://travle.earth/
My current favourite is https://metazooa.com
Super lucky :)
🐐 Animal #463 🐀 I figured it out in 3 guesses! 🟧🟥🟩 🔥 1 | Avg. Guesses: 7.5
https://metazooa.com #metazooa
I thought I was going to hate this and I absolutely love it
This is awesome.
Puzzmo.com is great
I finally got my first perfect on travle, it was super easy tho
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 :)
I tried to play this but no idea how it works. I tried the daily and I wrote a word that gave me all colored letters and didn't let me keep writing. Did I guess the word? No idea....
Another fun one to try is contexto.me. You guess a word, and an AI gives a score on how close it deems you are to the word.
Why the fuck dinner is closer to brunch then breakfast or lunch??
Spoilers bruh...
Haha, you'll have to ask the AI about that...
As long as they don’t ask me to break my Duolingo streak it’s all good. I‘m scared of that owl
https://redactle.net/ is a fun one
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
