I tried using the powerlanguage URL, got redirected to the nytimes URL, which had my old stats and settings. The answer had a repeating letter and began with a vowel, so I guess it was the hard one?
 
Is NYT trying to dumb down the game? The last few words have been tougher than usual.

That was the weird thing - both words today started and ended with the same letter, used twice. The NYT one was difficult because of the double letter, but not that unusual - it's a fairly common word. The word from the old site - I honestly didn't know that it was, standing alone, a word.

That's true of both words.

I did the Daily Dordle then refreshed because I couldn’t copy it. I got new words and a new color/dark option.

Turns out people like really easy games that appear difficult to make them feel good about themselves. Though that is being said about a group of college educated people, my guess wordle and others are impossible for the average illiterate American.
 
There a reason why (I don't think) there's a competitive version of Wordle. The whole point is for everyone to win.
 
Reducing the number of guesses you get to 5 would reduce the win rate pretty significantly. Nerdle is harder in that it takes longer (at least for me), but I haven't lost yet and I'm barely numerate.
 
Damn I must be the only one who almost got got today.

Nerdle is designed to be easy and accessible to people who aren’t good at math as per the mission statement. That’s why there are no triple digit numbers. There are 8 slots per guess and 16 characters to use. The equal sign can only go in two places or maybe a third. A good first guess can eliminate up to 5 numbers and two characters.

Guess I should've read the instructions. I looked at Nerdle and just threw up my hands.

The no triple digit number things isn't in the instructions. But it's supposed to be easy:
