How long until the New York Times buys it out to put behind their paywall like Wordle?
A game called One Million Checkboxes has sparked a terrible online war

wordle isn't behind a paywall

Ah see I stopped playing or even looking at it when the NYT bought it. At the time, that was the assumption since their other games are behind the paywall.
Instead, loading it up right now, it just looks like they have insanely large ads taking over 1/3 of the vertical space on lyn1440p monitor and forcing me to scroll to even see the full on screen keyboard.
Pretty shit UX there, as expected from every news site in the modern age.

What about the person with an auto clicker that just flails his mouse all over leaving chaos and a dead zone in which no one is happy not satisfied?

It looks like the bots have already started fighting over it.

The internet has ruined me. The headline made me think there was a swastika-ticking brigade and a swastika-cleaning squad; or a “pool’s closed” style griefing concerted effort; or a giant series of tickdicks.
This seems quite… nice in comparison. Good on you, internet.

I wouldn’t call it ruined. I rather like knowing how many “edgy” people there are
