Wordle sold to the NY Times

What do you all think? It wasn't created to make money, but the author is getting a nice payout.
It's interesting that I first heard about via a NYTimes article and I'm sure I'm not alone.
I hope they don't put it behind a paywall like the rest of their articles :)
Good for the creator. Couldn't care less about the NYT. Don't think they'll put it behind a paywall tbh, because hate from the community ~ if ya know, ya know
@csallen, it is a good reason to invite the Wordle author to the Indie Hackers podcast.
Happy for them, they've provided me with much enjoyment and frustration!
Oh wow, that was unexpected. Nice move by NYT though, will definitely drive traffic in the short term.
