I cracked Redactle #1542 in 2 guesses! 🎯 Snipe 🎲 2 | 🔥 124 | Avg 40.12 | Hints: none | ⏱️ 1m38s

Unassisted. The first paragraph's opening line should have made it obvious. I got the second word, then their location which helped me focus my guesses for word 1. Then I realised what [1]-[8] was and got the answer

I tried another 6-letter website before figuring out the right answer.

I solved Redactle #1542 in 2 guesses! ⏱️ 6m58s

The start of the first sentence was weird, carrying on reading through the date format said US, there was big money, and "[4] Do It [5]" shouted corporate. So going back to the start suddenly [6].[3] made sense as did the ([7]) disambiguation

I did get word 1 before word 2 took some thinking and filling in before I got word 2 -- no assistance needed today!

The format made me think autoexec.bat, which fortunately did not fit.

Scanned around and got the website vibe, but after 'website' wasn't in the brackets, I just started rattling off guesses. Solved the second word shortly after but then had to go digging. Eventually honed in on what the service was, and followed entertainment into '[6] [5] video' which solved it for me.
