Honestly, it makes me a bit sad I am not anywhere on the list at all. Yes, I had only one front page mention ever, the rest of my entries are probably bad and useless, but still.
I don't see how and why I wouldn't fall into the dataset, does anybody know please?
The minimum threshold for inclusion is 500 upvotes across all posts that reached the front page.[0] It looks like your domain currently has 176 total upvotes, so it misses the threshold.[1]
I have the minimum because I precompute all the data so that I can serve it on a static site, but it means everyone downloads the full dataset when they visit the site. I make the threshold 500 upvotes so the CSV doesn't grow too large.
Thanks for the reply, you are right, I missed the threshold on my first read. While I am still sad I can see the reasons for it. Guess I have some posting to do.

You won't show up unless your site is listed in this manually curated CSV file: https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/m...

Correction: you'll show up even if you're not in the CSV. The CSV just populates metadata for your entry.
