Thank you to everyone who tried it early and provided feedback. Little tweaks and new journals have hopefully already improved the experience.

Keeping up with research just got a lot more fun!
@beckerbastian.bsky.social has built something genuinely clever: a “Tinder for science” that helps you discover papers in a much more intuitive way.
If you’re tired of endless PDFs and search queries, give it a try 👉 www.SciLove.app
I'm not saying I'm old but I did just discover what swipe directions mean on Tinder by figuring out SciLove and learning it was based on Tinder.

Also finding it hard to keep up with new research? I built something to fix this.
SciLove — swipe through recent papers in your field. The feed learns from your saves. Also matches you with researchers saving your work back (opt-out if you prefer).
