This morning's was as close as I get to "getting angry" at this puzzle. Frustrating.

Oh, surely not?! How the HEJJ did you leap from one letter to the correct (and damned slippery) answer!
or I simply can't decide

Sometimes knowing what letters are NOT in the word can be even more valuable than knowing which ones ARE there. With my first two attempts, I had already eliminated four of the five vowels, and five of the more common consonants. Given the sole remaining vowel and the consonant that I did find (and fortunately finding it in its correct position) meant that there weren't a whole lot of other options.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

BTW, do you know while solving Dordle you can use the "Back" button and start over as often as you like? Hmmm?

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

No way I was getting that one; I had to look up what the 4th word even meant.

Re: WORDLE – The Internet's Newest Favorite Game
Meade, you can cheat on any of ‘em by using a second device. But why would you? I love the act of solving; don’t care that much about how many tries it takes.
ETA: I like to see other people‘s results more to get a sense of their strategy, or to try to figure out their starting word. I don’t particularly care what anyone’s “score” is.

Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.
Re: WORDLE – The Internet's Newest Favorite Game
In quordle I use my first two guesses to use up all vowels and moderately common letters my first word uses the 3 less common vowels which I use as my primary word elsewhere. I figure I can use the following guesses to use the common letters so by the last guess I’ll have process of eliminationed my way to the answer
