Well, not really. But it has a specific purpose -- people who have signed up for browser notifications from DU get a link to that page on Saturdays and Sundays to remind them of what's going on at DU. The "Trending Discussions" header on the home page also links to it. This is the direct link:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=update

FYI, there's another "secret" page that you can find by clicking the "Featured Stories" header on the home page. Essentially it's just a separate page with the current stories from the Featured Stories section.

The url is https://upload.democraticunderground.com/?com=digest&date=yyyymmdd where yyyymmdd is replaced with the date you want to view (so for example the url for March 13 2024 would be https://upload.democraticunderground.com/?com=digest&date=20240313).

If it's empty, it's because it populates when we add items to the home page in the morning.

I probably was dragging my cursor across that header and pressed enough to click it. I plan to visit that page a lot.
