Today's Quordle puzzle is not too bad compared to many; there are no uncommon letters, no repeated letters, no obscure words. And to make it easier still, two of the answers begin with the same letter, B, which always helps. I sailed through them all, thanks in no small part to my three start words giving me four letters for two of the answers, and five for another.

But the Daily Sequence is a different matter: all four words are potentially difficult and TWIXT is an absolute nightmare of a solution. Well done if you solved that one!
