Last year I made a terrible Wordle clone
Last year I made a terrible Wordle clone, posted it on the Internet and then moved on with my life.
A year later, many things happened on the Internet, so I wanted to write something about it. This is a story about nice free things on the Internet, and why they don't last.

I really liked the reflection on the subject with what has happened lately on the internet where little by little it is conquered by corporations and is used by the media or even governments to separate people when before it was a wild and dangerous place, where people could be themselves and share their ideas and creations freely.
Unfortunately it does not seem that the situation will improve soon without first getting worse, but at least it remains a tool where people end up finding people with similar ideas and sharing their tastes. Although it would be nice if the Internet helped to sympathize more with people of different tastes instead of trying to create conflict between people for attention.
Honestly, the whole talk about how games and how they can just be gutted for profit was quite interesting. I never got into Wordle when it was decently popular so I didn't get attached. It's just a bit nauseating that corporate entities seem to make things worse because they want money. It was a nice read at least. Cheers.
It seems Firefox is not recognizing where I should write the word, because it always activate search on page, and I can't properly write the word.
Edit: but the text is nice.
You just have to click on the game, then any text input is accepted by the game.
