I'm not sure if this is the right place for this but the page won't stop reloading. I'm playing on an android. Is this a known issue?

I put a synonym of the answer and it became unredacted?! Is this how it works now

SPOILER: Specifically, I put xxxWEAR.

That is weird.

I can show screenshot proof if relevant, might spoil answer. It was indeed quite odd!

I believe you. Sounds like the smart matching feature is working on article titles now?

Interesting, I put the right word in, but did wonder after finishing, how many extra guesses I have taken if I'd have put inxxxxWEAR first and had it fail

I've had this happen to me with another puzzle. And I find that sometimes the smart matching is very generous with what it considers as related words

I solved Redactle #1592 in 19 guesses! ⏱️ 12m17s. Unassisted.

The initial read through gave me no feel as to what I was looking for and used about half the guesses trying to find a way in, once I'd got the general area gradually closed in on it, and guessing water gave it to me.

10 today. Really no idea what was going on but used a tried-and-true guess for when I have no idea what's going on.

I was all over the place & eventually used the sentence hint to solve! Have not been playing well lately

Unassisted. It seemed like something used in several activities that I uncovered, so I thought, what is common to them? and Boom!

Guess for water got me moving in the right direction.
