It’s an interesting statistical problem to decide whether hard mode is more difficult than non-hard (avoiding the word “easy”) mode. I found this article: <https://laurentlessard.com/solving-wordle/> that discusses the problem. The author concludes it is more a matter of preference which you choose. Although there is a hard mode strategy that performs better than par.

@dan @wordle I’ve just noticed the #oldgal doesn’t play in hard mode. We need a level playing field 📣

I, however, don’t use it.

@barstep @wordle Ha! Well, she is playing against multiple people. Some of the hard mode-ers have decided to embrace a win over her if they tie.
