Because Mirror universes are funny that way. How many of DS9's mirrors wound up on the Mirror Station?My question is more along the lines of how would he have gotten there?
But that's funny.

Your preferred continuity is irrelevant. TATV exists, until such time as it's retconned.TATV is not part of Star Trek. It just isn’t.
The greatest minds in fandom are working on that.Your preferred continuity is irrelevant. TATV exists, until such time as it's retconned.
This isn't about personal preference, good, bad or indifferent. It's about what is and isn't Star Trek.
Now, I enjoy DSC for what it is. That isn't to say that I would do it exactly as it was presented. I certainly would not have done the uniforms that way, the Discovery design would have been out after the first concept art. But, that's preference. And, if Discovery wasn't entertaining then I probably wouldn't watch it.
What kind of minds?
Probably being zapped non-stop in an agony booth, if I were guessing
They were her fellow crew mates on the U.S.S. Hiawatha.Do you think we'll ever find out who was in the pods when Jett Reno was rescued from the asteroid? Personally, I'd LOVE if the patients were survivors of the I.S.S. Discovery... namely Captain Killy and Prime Gabriel Lorca
Neither Killy or Prime Lorca were on that ship.
But do we KNOW that every single pod was one of Reno's crewmates? It's entirely plausible the Hiawatha picked up some survivors of I.S.S. Discovery.
I really think Reno would have mentioned if the ship had picked up someone called Killy and/or Captain Lorca.
Also, it was pretty much established that the I.S.S. Discovery arrived in the Prime Universe without a working Spore Drive and was almost immediately set upon and pretty much destroyed by the Klingons when they found the ship.
There apparently weren't any survivors and if there had been, the Klingons would have taken them.
So the Hiawatha wouldn't have found any survivors even if they had come upon the wreckage.
I also believe that Reno said that the Klingons attacked all of the escape pods and she with her medical charges were the only ones left alive from the Hiawatha.

Been watching some Deep Space Nine lately, since that is the show people seem to most compare to Discovery. While DS9 isn't my favorite Trek by a pretty large stretch, they did seem to know what they wanted the show to be, especially once Ira Steven Behr took over the writers room.
If Discovery can find that vision of what it wants to be, it could still end up being a great show.

I'll have to do the same. Not including stray episodes here and there over the past decade, I haven't done a start-to-finish rewatch of DS9 since 2008.
But I'll do it after I finish re-watching TNG. I'm on a mission. I've committed myself to watching all the way up through "All Good Things" before the Picard Series starts. I'll skip out on the movies. I don't want the image of Rambo Picard fresh in my mind when the time comes. That version of the character needs to be a distant memory.
Jett Reno is clearly inspired from Kate Reid's Dr Ruth Leavitt from 1971's The Andromeda Strain. Anyone needing a fix of a brilliant wiseass need look no further than this film.
Doing a rewatch of season 2 now and everything after Spock arrives seems to become more emotionally sure footed. The producers still haven't quite got to the point where you could the show is properly good, but they're certainly getting there. My advice now would be for them to minimise tedious technical gibberish and as many laboured none character related plot points as possible.

Spoilers about GOT episode 3:
This might be an unpopular opinion... but comparing Discovery's season finale to GOT's climax battle with the Army of the Dead, I feel that Discovery did it a lot better. The battle was extremely epic and easy to follow compared to GOT's dark and confusing battle. And Control, for all the faults of the character, still had more motivation and backstory than the Night King got over multiple seasons.
Yes, I know GOT is more about the iron throne than the army of the dead and an even bigger battle episode might be coming, but I couldn't help think of the similarities between the 2 episodes as I watched them.

My wife is watching discovery first time , and says why is the crew so hostile to each other

One guy killed another, he came back to life, wasn't happy about being killed. One gal started a big war with the Klingons, people weren't happy about that. One gal has red hair and talks a lot, some people don't like either of those things. And they're stuck on a ship together 24/7. I'd get hostile, too.
Not liking Tilly is illogical.
