Comment on New York Times is targeting Wordle clones with DMCA takedownsparent

Comments

You can look at the comments section to see how popular it is, oftentimes there are a few hundred comments. That is higher than most NYT news stories (back when I used to use their website).

The Website has stats on the number who play each game (and their moves).

March 7 - Wordle 992 - 1,748,583 players

March 8 - Wordle 993 - 1,749,500 players

To get these go to:

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/upshot/wordle-bot.h...

then "Compare and review recent scores" -> Next page -> on on the "Your Recent scores" select "view analysis" against the game number -> Next page

Doesn't seem to work with anonymous browser unfortunately.

That is ... amazingly consistent.

I guess the question is how many people play around on the weekends. I could believe those still playing have a daily ritual when they play a match after logging into work.
