I work on https://elevenmusic.io (full disclosure), so I just had to check:

  onemusic.com.au
  twomusic.it
  3music.tv
  fourmusic.com
  5music.com.tw
  bbc.co.uk/6music
  seven-music.com
  (8 appears to be vacant?)
  ninemusic.net
  tenmusic.in

Maybe 8 music sounds too close to “hate music” when pronounced fast? Not exactly a great advertisement if someone tunes in to your radio station and hears you hate music.

Close but not exact, and not defunct https://blog.8tracks.com/

44Music not taken? Common time signature seems obvious...

oh, 'the44music' is it. Ok, world is fine.

is there onetwothreeFOURfivesixseveneightNINEteneleventwelvemusic.in [1]?

Naturally most of the 67/six seven ones are taken too, but are just being squatted on.

I'm disappointed that sixseven.ai is not joining the Gen-Z brainrot revolution.

Hi HN! Hope you have fun with this one :) Everything is free to browse and download and if the sound you need doesn't exist, describe it and generate it. Every generation joins the public library, so the catalog grows from what people couldn't find.

Dwitter is 10 years old this winter! If anyone is interested in some backstory, I dug up an old interview: https://medium.com/windows-developer/dwitter-dares-you-to-co....

Of course, the real magic of dwitter is the lovely community: https://discord.gg/emHe6cP


Arc Roam is my holiday project this Christmas. I wanted to create an online, browser-based, mobile-playable "destilled" alternative to the old classic PC game Elastomania, (and it's unofficial multiplayer mod Elma Online). I used to play Elma religiously, but it stopped working on Mac (via Wine) last year, so hopefully I now have a way of getting my fix again! Now all I need is someone to complete against

The tech stack is pretty simple: - React / canvas (2d) frontend - express / ws backend - Fully ephemeral, no storage (to save money)


Cool! Not to self-promote (no monetization or anything), but in case any one finds it helpful, I made something similar for myself to practice becoming more accurate with Wacom-style tablet pens: https://tabletpractice.arkt.is/


This is great too! Being able to draw nice straight lines with a tablet pen might debatably be even more useful than drawing a perfect circle.


Since we are sharing variants in different languages, here's Norwegian: https://www.fiveletters.xyz/no/five


#somebodyshould make a danish version…


I can modify my swedish one to do danish. Do you know of any good word lists? For all valid words I can use /usr/share/dict/danish. But do you know of any list that only has good clue words? I'm looking for something like https://scrabbleforening.wordpress.com/ordlister/ord-med-4-b... but for five letters


I can easily give you a list of all valid 5-letter words in Danish. Would that do?


PS: I'm unsure how the clue thing works?


Take the word "lampa". You have versions of the word: "lampor", "lampan" and so on. The correct word for each day should only be of the type "lampa". No "bending". That is the word list that I'm looking for. But you should be able to guess words that are "bent". Those I can get from /usr/share/dict/danish


I'm pretty sure I can give you a list of all 5-letter Danish words in the “lampa” form, but I need to work on it because I have to pour them through a filter first, and then manually inspect the thousands of words remaining.

Can we take this conversation to email? You can find my email address at https://kas.bio.link/ and I'm perfectly fine if you write in Swedish (if I may reply in Danish).


Here is the first attempt: https://ordlek.github.io/ordlek/dansk/

Hope you like it :)


I do! But it seems somebody beat us to it: https://xn--wrdle-vua.dk/


There is! It's called wørdle.dk :)


LOL! I love the domain name!!


That's for the stats feature that shows you e.g. your most guessed word, etc. It's all calculatated client-side. In fact, there is no backend at all!


It uses the scrabble dictionary (SOWPODS, as you mention) -- if it is a playable five-letter word in scrabble, then it is playable here.


I got to _love and tried clove and glove. Neither were the answer. Anyone?


I came across https://bert.org/2021/11/24/the-best-starting-word-in-wordle... on HN the other day, and decided to do my own take on the concept as a little weekend project.


Technology-wise, I wanted to try out two things that I hadn't tried before for this project.

One was to use Expo to release on web and mobile at the same time. I've used React Native quite a bit in a professional capacity, so I wanted to check out the Expo landscape. I discovered that the web part (react native web) didn't quite deliver on what I was looking for, so I scrapped it and ported to Vite/react-ts and dropped native completely.

The other was to see if I could find a low-friction way of setting up subscriptions for a static web frontend with no first party backend. That is the reason why there is a premium subscription tier for a small weekend game like this. Turns out that this was pretty straight forward with Gumroad! In the end, I was pretty happy with the way the flow turned out (except that Apple Pay isn't supported without stepping out of the flow and heading to Gumroad directly).

It is not "highly ethical", this game has existed for decades. That's like saying Candy Crush copied Bejeweled; neither games were origina.


The exactly-five-letter word guesser that includes virtual keyboard that paints keys as hints as the game progresses?

After explicitly mentioning in a comment that the game was derived from Wordle - "I came across https://bert.org/2021/11/24/the-best-starting-word-in-wordle... on HN the other day".

The OP now added "About", with weasel-worded reference to Wordle. Jesus. How hard is it to just acknowledge other people's work that you are directly borrowing from.


It’s better than Wordle, which is offering one word per day.

It’s not like he’s getting rich off three dollars a month. He’s providing a free service.

Does Wordle have a link to their inspiration?

I support people being creative, if he wants to earn a few bucks and disrupt the word game market with a new business model, fine by me.


This - and Wordle - are games that existed before the internet. I played this on paper as a child.


In a similar vein, here are my dweets: https://beta.dwitter.net/u/sigveseb/top
