I think you're right. I want to find experts in each field who can help me create a 'most important papers' section that people like me (who don't know anything) can go to to understand the most important and 'hottest' ideas and see the discussion around them.
I'm using Supabase free-tier, think I need to upgrade to allow more sign ups. Mobile experience needs work, sorry about that. Thanks for the feedback, cheers!
'There are often lots of little sections of a paper to discuss in detail, and I think it's hard to do that with a linear format of comments controlled by up and down votes'
I had exactly the same thought. Trying to think of a better way to handle this. Doesn't help that PDFs are so difficult to parse correctly.
I want to do this! Also want to let people submit edits to that AI generated summary (like on github) so it can become as accurate and compressed as possible.
Thanks so much everyone for the feedback, did not expect this to get so much support. I know there are a lot of bugs and usability issues, I'll try to fix all this stuff in the next week and post again.
Can you explain? Don't know what a Lemmy instance is. I did think about using time decay to give a more HN-like experience but haven't gotten around to implementing it yet.
