hurshy, I've been playing squaredle. it's pretty good.

9:51 am

hurshy

yeah, i like it! and i think babblers who are really driven nuts by weird words would like it even more

9:51 am

hurshy

it's nice how the letters disappear at the end to make it easier to find your last words, too

9:52 am

hokie carla

yes, usually have to wait to get the big ones then, but sometimes I see them earlier.

9:54 am

rururocks

I'm not commenting on that

9:54 am

hurshy

i also just thought it would be funny if a certain wordle spin-off existed, and lo and behold, it does! play-birdle.com

9:55 am

hokie carla

if it involves birds I'll pass, but moo would like it.

9:56 am

hurshy

well, of course, it does

9:57 am

hurshy

and i don't know things about birds, but, if you treat the game as a chance to learn, rather than test what you already know, and you use the web to help you...
