#12Fun idea!
I will say that the interface feels a bit mobile-first to a fault: the swiping interaction isn't very desktop friendly. It'd be nice to have some buttons to click on for those of us using mice or trackpads.

#13It took me a while to figure out that I should drag the headline left or right. I first tried to click the red "fake" and green "not", I tried to click on the headline, etc.
I then realized that it was written in the light grey message to which I was not paying attention.
It may be my fault, just giving the feedback in case it can help to improve the UX.

You're absolutely right. We'll add that.

#16I think the problem with this is that it’s not fun because it’s too hard :/ headlines have seriously degenerated.

#17I don't think I can agree with the claim about perfect grammar, a lot of the fake headlines had grammatical errors.
I found the easy way of identifying the real from the fake (aside from the grammatical errors) was basically the absurd or extreme (typical clickbait) vs logical nonsense.
Examples
> The haunted is not what we think it's
> The Most Common Words You'd Name You... But Couldn't Names
Grammatical error
> These adorable pets are supporting the womens march
Just typical clickbait
> Shane Nakua's Cameo Line is just like any young girl's face
I don't understand what that is actually trying to say, so I put it in the logical nonsense pile.

Same for me. The UI is not obvious.
