As others have said, you can (and often should) make guesses that don't satisfy all the clues you've found so far. That way you can find / eliminate symbols much more quickly.
It's funny there are so many people saying how much they hate it. All power to you. But personally I like it way more than Wordle.
I basically like the solving part of Wordle but hate the thinking up words aspect. Nerdle fixes that, but the equation bit keeps it more interesting than a meaningless string of symbols.
Similar to how I prefer the numbers round on Countdown [1] to the main letters game.
