Noodling kind of question, Share results / copy to Clipboard both seem to put the same string in the local clipboard: Hisorty #9 1/3 https://hisorty.app ( the six green squares don't render on HN ) ... which is still a string that can be readily edited. It's more resources your end to save game results for a specific play and generate a unique checksummed hash key for a third party URL lookup, sure, so I guess the question is how important is it for players to reliably share their results in a manner that is hard than a simple edit to 'cheat' on? | ||

Most people share their result with friends and family in text threads. It’s for fun and starts discussions, many times out of a solution being surprising or tough. The best times are when one of us can’t figure out a solution and we give each other hints. | ||

very good question. My take is that once the result becomes this easy to manipulate, like simply editing the result string, it kinda defeats the purpose of doing so :D . If anyone can do it then it kinda loses meaning and there’s not much point to doing so in the first place | ||
