I built Nextish News as a weekend side project after seeing the AI and tech news cycle get more surreal every week. The idea is simple: give it a topic or inside joke, and it turns that into a faux tech news article you can share with friends, coworkers, or the group chat. It’s meant to make people pause for half a second, laugh, and then realize it’s satire. A big part of the build was making sure it felt fun without trying to impersonate real journalism. So articles use their own Nextish branding, stay private until you publish, and are framed as satire on the public page. The project evolved from “generate a fake headline” into a fuller article flow: draft, choose or upload an image, improve the piece with plain-English notes, then publish a shareable link. Would love to hear what fake tech headlines people make with it.
