Very interesting! I would like to know how you determine the authenticity of the news. Through authoritative information sources? If it is true, can you link to the news link?

@zenda1122 The news were gathered from hacker news and reportedly satire news websites. The answers lists are actually links to their respective articles.

This sounds like such a fun project! How did you gather the headlines for the game, and do you plan to update them regularly? Also, are there any features for tracking progress or competing with friends to make it even more engaging? Can't wait to test my skills!

@kyrylosilin Thanks for the feedback! The headlines were gathered from Hacker News and reportedly Satire News websites. It is indeed in my interest to update it, and hey, the idea of having a way to compete with friends like we used to do in the old Facebook days is actually really nice. As for now, unfortunately, these are features are not available

Hey @guilherme_haschel, your game sounds like a fun way to sharpen our news discernment skills! I love the idea of swiping to judge headlines. Just curious, how do you curate and update the headlines to ensure the game remains challenging and reflective of current events? 📰🔍

@dmytro_semonov We gathered the posts from both Hacker News and a few different outlets of satire news. We try to get the ones that /could/ look the similar to the way news are posted to hacker news. Regarding keeping it challenging, I believe in the future we could think of a way to have articles submitted, and also increase the amount of news, to make it as an ever-growing collection.

It looks interesting~ I'm thinking, if I could post the news I usually see and judge its authenticity, that would be even better. Our surroundings are filled with a lot of news, including rumors, distorted facts, intentional exaggerations, and concealment of partial truths. If we could identify them, it would be better to see the true nature of events.

@sizzy Thanks for the feedback! That's a great idea! I also believe everyone could benefit on the transparency of the article tone and inclination.
