My full Wordle story 👇

When I was 17 years old (2016) I built a mobile app called Wordle… it was downloaded about 100k times before I gave up on the project It sat in my apple developer account, until in 2021 another developer named Josh build a web app game, also called Wordle Josh’s game went viral globally. A lot of people searching for his game went to the appstore and downloaded mine instead A lot of other app developers tried to copy the game but Apple removed them all… except mine because it was the OG built before any other Wordle existed Apple wiped out all the competition. I was the only “Wordle” on the appstore My little mobile app ended up being downloaded over 10M times in the span of a few weeks It changed my life forever.

@MwangiisMuthui Super rewarding to give back to the community. Incredible work, Steven.

you could’ve done something useful with the money but instead you donated it to some black DEI charity

This is so epic dude

This thread and video clip together make it sound like you made $10 million and donated $50 thousand

That might be the lamest story ever, Stevie

Incredible not everybody will understand why you have done so givers are a few

this is truly beautiful

This is incredible, well done! 👏

Nice.

Best one of these I've seen!
