Seems like the best strategy is to choose words with repeat letters. For example, two great first choices would be LOLLY and SASSY. That's two empty cells that can't be used to guess.
Hello! I am the creator of Don’t Wordle. Really excited to see this took off today. I thought I would share some background about the game, some of the iterations I went through, and some of the future features I would like to add. Background: Like many others, I have been playing Wordle daily. Recently, my Wordle win streak hit 99. I was admittedly very careful with my guesses on Day 100, not wanting to ruin my stre…
Well, I would say the question is poorly posed. The answer to the question as posed is simple as can be if the guess contains no duplicate letters. But if the guess does contain duplicate letters, the question as posed doesn't necessarily have any answer. It may - if all duplicates should be yellow, or if some of them should be green while all the rest are yellow, there's only one valid way to color the guess. But in the general case, you have some number of green squares, some number of yellow squares, and some number of dead squares, and you can swap yellow for dead without affecting the validity of the coloring.
So the question you should be asking is not "should this square be yellow?" but rather "how many yellow squares should this guess receive?". Then you can just choose appropriate squares to color yellow arbitrarily.

These days my solution is to put cloudflare in front of it and walk away. Good game to add to my current daily routine (heardle, Wordle, quordle, worldle), but man is it hard!
surely the answer is just an HTTP redirect? thanks for heardle! have you tried nerdle?
Already love it, but can you fit it onto an iphone SE display please! Im scrolling and zooming all over the place (some of us like small phones :)
Would you mind sharing a screenshot of what it looks like for you currently? I am admittedly still learning how to best support cross-device compatibility. I have found that in the Chrome Dev Tools preview for certain devices, everything looks fine, but then in reality things don't fit properly

I love the premise! It really pokes fun at how Wordle (and other popular games) are actually pretty hard to lose if you play anywhere above some very low threshold of effort/ability. > it would also be cool to have a “Valid Solutions Remaining” feature That would be awesome. I suppose the biggest challenge would be to enumerate possible solutions in tree form to allow DFS or BFS searching. Thanks for sharing!

Don't know about Route53 + Cloudfront combination but your #4 challenge would be super simple with a webserver like apache or nginx.

Could try serving a client side redirect. Just an index.html page that has a script that redirects the browser to the https version document.location.href = https://dontwordle.com
Assuming that works, I don't see the need for Javascript when a meta refresh achieves the same with just HTML.
Haven't heard of meta refresh though, thanks for sharing
It's a great alternative for anyone looking for more challenge out of their word guessing game.
