[feature request] difficulty setting

[tubbadu]

Sometimes words are so unusual or niche. It would be nice to have the possibility to choose a lower difficulty level, where only more common words are used

That is dependent on the availability of dictionaries. You can always cheat by using my Wordlesolver app. The problem may be exacerbated by the use of British(Welsh) English words.

Alternative idea for difficulty levels: choosing a set of words instead of one word and refining the set each time user provides a solution in user's favour (easy mode) or against user (hard mode).

That's a completely different algorithm and is deterministic, in that it is predictable. This app is random, it's only possible to make it predictable by sharing codes.
