Wordle - what is it?

I got it in 4 today. I was right it is too technical to share! I clicked share and it said copied to clipboard, what clipboard?

The clipboard is like a temporary "memory" like when you copy and paste something. When you copy something it's saved to the clipboard. You then open up the document you want to paste it to and then paste it on to the document. If you right click it's on the menu there or you can press control and v.
 
I couldn't find clipboard, it's definitely all too technical for me. I hate computer stuff, if it wasn't for the Forum and on line shopping during the lockdowns I wouldn't bother with one. Things have moved on so much and left me behind, I used to use computers all day when I worked but I've been retired nearly 12 years.

You don't need to find clipboard. Once the image (or words) have been copied all you need to do is either right click and choose paste or press control and v together.
 
I finally got it! To be honest, I was out running errands for a couple of hours and then had to introduce my mom to it. So she's playing it too. She did have to call and brag that she got it in 3 tries.

Doesn’t it show the letters?

It doesn't show the letters because everyone gets the same word so it would spoil it for those who haven't done it yet.
By not showing the letters it allows people to share their result and generates interest.
I first came across it when it entered everyone's Facebook feed, so the theory does work!
