Do you know how a post might end up on the Google discover feed? This randomly happened to me.

Yeah, I actually see mine pop up there from time to time, too. No clue how Google's scrapers work, but your results are individualized. I assume it's because I spend a good amount of time reading about the same things I write about.

Good for you. Reading too much HN seems to cause Coronavirus related symptoms according to the latest studies😂
