- Hard mode is on
- Starting guess is always yesterday's correct answer
- Don't use any letters in guesses that have already been ruled out

I think that using letters that are marked out can be useful when fishing for letters if you have a word that can check a lot of common letters or specific positions even if it uses ones you know can't be correct instead. But I guess if hard mode is enabled that becomes less useful.

I think the restriction of never using letters that have been ruled out makes it harder to think of new words but it does help me to not waste guesses. Same goes for if a letter is confirmed to be in a certain spot, don't guess any words that don't have that letter in that spot.
This usually means i spend like 40 minutes on one wordle puzzle tho

I mean these rules are meant to make the game harder rather than easier
