Earlier quoted context omitted.

I don't think I have ever worked out how to!(from the Android app)

The Android app definitely has an option to copy a link to the video under the share button. The copied URL doesn't even seem to contain any tracking parameters.

Thanks I see it now. I hate that UI more than any other.

Good stuff, thanks for sharing!

There's a card game Krypto that is similar, fun to play with my kids. I wrote some scripts awhile ago to solve Krypto games and figure out how many games are unsolvable.

I wrote up my thinking and how I went about solving here: https://mkaz.blog/math/krypto-game-analysis/

No nerdle fans here? https://nerdlegame.com/

Kind of a fan - but for some reason the UI is really bad for me in Firefox. You cannot type `/` or `Enter` - you have to use the mouse for those. And it kept saying things did not compute, even though it was a valid equation.

The symbol for the multiplication shows as "ă" for me for some reason.

Hmm, it is the correct unicode character: × U+00D7 MULTIPLICATION_SIGN

Perhaps × html entity would fix that.

Nifty. Could use some explanation, as not everyone is familiar with the show Countdown (particularly outside the UK).

Even knowing the show, I was a bit confused how I was supposed to solve it using only one operation, until I realized it was a series of steps. And it took me a moment to figure out how to reuse the result of a previous step.

Once I had figured that all out, though, it was a pleasure to use. Well done!

There's a question mark icon help menu thing in the upper left.
