website for discovering interesting etymologies

I made a website that gives you a feed of etymologies.

https://etymologyfeed.com/

You can "like" an etymology if its interesting to you—this will save it to your personal liked list, and will also promote that etymology in other users’ feeds.

You'd be among the first users, so the card selection is mostly random. But with a few people using it, I'm hoping we can start an engine for elevating the most interesting etymologies.

The etymologies are pulled from Wikitionary. I wrote some algorithms for filtering out the most obviously uninteresting etymologies.

If you have any recs or requests for the website, let me know. Happy to implement new features.
