Are we able to discuss the word of the day on the day?
Personally, I do not come onto this thread until I've finished for the day. Maybe a good rule of thumb if you want to avoid spoilers
I don't come to post until I have solved the word either. I'll give it a bit and then perhaps go through my thought process on todays word.
Moojor, I'm amazed at how you solved today's in two guesses when you only got one letter right (but in the wrong place) in your first guess. I think you must be cyclops psychic.

Pffttt...I did this before it was cool
I've moved on to Arabic wordle (which is actually teaching me new words with my failures)
That gave me the I being correct but in the wrong place. So I want to try I in the second position because that's going to be the most common place for it to go, also want to try more common letters
So I decide on thinking of words starting T I _ _ _
First word that comes to mind when I saw that, with the letters I know it can't be, was T I G H T
Now I don't want to have two of the same letters, but want to keep with T in my second guess. So go with _ I G H T.
Quite a few options here, fight, light, might, night are the first that come to mind. So now, what if _ I G H T is wrong.
Okay, so then we might be looking at a double letter word. Again a quick look at the those 4 words, L is the only one that easily comes to mind for double letters.
So I'm sort of hoping that if L I G H T is wrong, then the L and H are in the next word and I'm going to go with H I L L Y
If _ I G H T was correct but L wrong then it's basically I go with F I N A L and Then I know my 4th guess is going to be starting with either the F or N if correct from F I N A L and if neither of those I go with M for M I G H T
I chose 'irate' as my starting word because it's made from 5 of the 6 most common letters in English.
Having said that, it almost never proves a useful starting point and I seem to get one yellow at best from it each day.
So, in conclusion, it's a stupid game and I quit.
I always start with BREAD, but the last couple of days I've had no letters so I'm thinking maybe it's time for a change. The next one I'm thinking of is ADIEU because, well, come on look at those vowels.

Quite interested in how others go about solving the word and what thought process goes in to it.

I decided to have those two as my starter, but always think on the morning, shall I or shan't I ?
