I am trying so hard to not know what Wordle is or how to play. Now it is showing up on Hacker News? Damn. I’ve not had this much trouble since I avoided Sudoku.
The "original" Wordle[0] only lets you play once per day, so if potential addiction is your concern, it shouldn't be a problem. It should take up less than 5 minutes of your time per day.
