MathScroll – Infinitely Scroll Mathematics

This is super fun! I've been upset all day because the news is depressing, but this is a little ray of sunshine that I think I could enjoy.

Math is one of those things that can be hard to approach because it's hard to know what you don't know. Occasionally I've asked people for textbook recommendations, but I think that it could be fun to doomscroll math topics to get new ideas on things to play with.

It's not loading on my end, but I checked out the web archive version of it and have to say that this feels possibly quite fun and, dare I say, potentially addictive. Not sure if there's an intention to extend this, but giving the ability to filter by topic, "trending-ness" (like the "hot" metric on Reddit), controversy, date of post/last engagement, etc. could be a potential next step.

Cool idea.

Maybe make it more mobile friendly by putting the image above the text content. Text content feels “squished” on mobile
