It’ll be very interesting to see how Google ranks the search results. I don’t know about others, but I almost never directly search SO, and almost always end up there through Google. If GitHub Discussions has the answer and Google directs me there, I will definitely not visit SO as often anymore.

Stackoverflow's search algorithm sucks compared to Google. I always use google and add the "site:stackoverflow.com" operator to find answers on SO.
To be fair pretty much everybody’s sucks compared to Google. I think your approach is almost universally sensible.

I've found the questions that SO surfaces when writing my questions to be pretty good.
