Show HN: Wordle but for Tweets

20 pointsby mox111almost 3 years ago
Hey HN<p>I built this simple app that grabs four popular tweets from the last 24 hours and removes a word from each, so that the missing words spell out a phrase. It&#x27;s the player&#x27;s job to guess the missing words.<p>A key motive for building this was that, to be honest, I was finding much of the news and social media dialogue quite depressing. I thought that if a wholesome or inspirational phrase can be built out of these (often tiresome) tweets, then there would be something nice about that.<p>The stack included GCloud scheduler (for daily Tweet scraping and automatic puzzle generation), Supabase (which, by the way, is fantastic) and Next &#x2F; Vercel.

Really good animations! Hoping we can play past games or at least generate new phrases after completing the day&#x27;s puzzle because this is somewhat entertaining and dopaminergic for some odd reason.

I like it a lot, small feedback:<p>The share text has the link as (www.birdle.art). If you change the link in the text to be like ( <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;birdle.art" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;birdle.art</a> ) it will be clickable in Discord and others.

Honest think that it&#x27;s really well made, but intensely disliked the game (can&#x27;t please everyone). Well done on the design and execution though!

Cool idea. I wish I could be notified when tomorrow&#x27;s game is ready.
