Discussion on: Where do you back-up your posts?

Then with Hashnode's GitHub backup feature there's a 3rd copy on a public repo.

That might hurt your SEO as Google can crawl public repos and treat it as a duplicate content. To be sure I spoke with Hashnode co-founder about this on Twitter and he recommended setting back-up repo as private to be safe.

Of course, always point canonical URLs to the original if you x-post somewhere.
