Very cool! One minor improvement here; if the user has toggled colorblind mode on, then their tweeted result will also have altered color blocks. Orange for right letter right place, and blue for right letter wrong place.

That's a really neat attention to detail! I haven't seen the colourblind boxes.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Huh, I thought HN stripped out emojis from posts. Has that changed, or is there a limited subset that are available?

Maybe because ■ is part if ASCII? Edit: ⬛⬜ work, the colored ones don't.

No post body was provided.

This is your regular reminder that today's word, and all the upcoming ones, are located in the Wordle minified JS.

Yes, we know. We can also easily "solve" a crossword puzzle by waiting a day and just copying down the published answers.

People are having fun solving puzzles in clever ways. This post is an exceptionally clever way of solving a puzzle in an unexpected way, using forensic data analysis, which is itself something of interest to a lot of us.
