I think the issue is that people are adjusting what they see on screen instead of adjusting their environment (i.e. room lighting), even when they are totally able to do it. A dark mode could make it bearable to work in poor light condition

Very cool. And way more challenging. A way to make this a bit easier would be allowing a nonexistent word once per game or something like that. > the red tile indicates the number of correct characters in the correct position I suggest u

Indentation is OK, sure. I was talking about aligning stuff on the middle of a line. I find tabs better for indentation but in practice end up using spaces.

Spaces work well for indentation. You could argue here that typing one character (tab) is more efficient and maintainable than writing N (also semantically more powerful). The real problem comes when people start aligning things on the midd

I feel like many times it's not that the message doesn't get read but that it doesn't persuade the recipient to make the time to write a response. Shortening the text not only transmits the message more efficiently, it also a
