I had to edit mine to cut back on the number of characters. Any way to thin out the “but’s and “and's” to reduce character count?

Hi! Can you share your Wordle result in a comment here so I've got a good example of one that's too long? Thanks!

Wordle 204 X/6
Line 1: 5th perfect, but 1st and 2nd in the wrong place.
Line 2: 5th perfect, but 3rd and 4th in the wrong place.
Line 3: 2nd and 5th perfect, but 1st in the wrong place.
Line 4: 2nd, 3rd and 5th perfect.
Line 5: 2nd, 3rd and 5th perfect.
Line 6: 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th perfect.

Edited for Twitter this way:

Line 1: 5th perfect,1st and 2nd in the wrong place.
Line 2: 5th perfect,3rd and 4th in the wrong place.
Line 3: 2nd and 5th perfect, 1st in the wrong place.
Line 4: 2nd, 3rd and 5th perfect.
Line 5: 2nd, 3rd and 5th perfect.
Line 6: 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th perfect.

Could simplify “in the wrong place” to “in wrong place” to save also, if that would make sense to screen readers.

Thanks! Can you share the full result including the emojis please?

I also just pushed up an update. Can you give it a try and see if it's fixed for you?

Ah, I see it! The text already dynamically adjusts to fit within a tweet, but the calculation wasn't including the "Wordle 204 X/6" heading.

I just pushed up another update. Can you give it another try please?
