Welcome to the new format of [email protected]! Instead of the daily post focusing on the NYT crossword like on /r/crossword, we're now open to discussion for all daily crosswords.

I request using Lemmy's spoiler function if you plan on discussing answers - to avoid spoiling the crossword for others. It's not something I plan on enforcing, just want everyone to extend courtesy to others. For those checking the comments, some spoilers may slip by, so please proceed into the comments with caution.

I aim to post these at 10 PM EST the day before, in line with the current post times.

If there are any other crosswords you would like to see added to this list, please let me know and I will add it in a future post.

Thank you for being a part of this community!

Absolutely!

Other than NYT, all other linked crosswords should be paywall free. If you run into issues accessing any of them, please let me know.

NYT: 3:03, got a few wrong on first pass, misspelled japans most famous moutain as an island country, and with two very American spesific clues, this took waaaaay to long. Pulling the foreigner card on this one.

Yeah the Apple clue tripped me up as well. They get super deceptive with clues like that at times.

Other times you'll think it's about the fruit when it's about the tech company.

  • NYT: 1:01 - ayo
  • LAT: 1:42 - Any day I solve an LAT Mini is a good day
  • USA Today: 0:30
  • WaPo: 2:05
  • Telegraph: 0:16 - Ayyyyyyy my new fastest Telegraph Mini! Noice.
  • Modern Crossword: xx:xx - First L I've had to take in a Modern Crossword. Too many obscure name clues.
