Walkthrough for yesterday's Linesweeper, as explained by Walker: https://youtu.be/_nvmdCO5u8g

Hi everyone! Today is the return of Strange-Shaped Sunday, which is still not a series! I hope you enjoy this Wittgenstein Briquet on a hex grid! The example puzzle shows the various ways one can get answer check (either drawing edges around the regions, or using the line tool to denote them). Also, today is the 600th GAPP! Which is something I was reminded of, and then something I didn't do anything about with regards to the theming of this puzzle. Woops.

Rules: Locate some 1x3 blocks in the grid which may not overlap each other or the clues. A clue represents how many of the (up to) six surrounding cells are used by blocks. All cells not used by blocks must form one orthogonally connected area.

As always, an example puzzle and its solution are attached with the image of today's puzzle. Solve that here, if you wish (Penpa+): https://tinyurl.com/22npl8p2
