Very good job, I like it! I like it even better that you prepopulated the feed with very interesting articles for the hn launch. Can you share any tips about your deployment process? I can assume you didn't use docker as i don't see any Dockerfile in your repo. Did you use ci/cd and/or staging servers etc? I really like Django but its deployment isn't as straightforward or beginner-friendly as something like laravel. I love hearing how people are managing their side projects.
Deploying Django apps to Heroku is pretty straightforward.
If you want to host yourself you can give a try to Dokku which similar but self-hosted.
I have written a small tutorial on how to deploy Django apps with Dokku : https://ponytech.net/blog/django-deployment-dokku
