I was going great guns today until my final guess, when I had to choose between three possible words ending in O-V-E-R from the letters I had remaining (Hover, Cover and LOVER). After agonizing for far too long I decided to go for the most common of the words and got lucky.
Meanwhile, as my Quordle game gets stronger I'm going in the opposite direction with the Daily Sequence, the game which forces you to do one word at a time Wordle-style. I did solve today's, but it was a struggle.
