Comment on Ask HN: How to discover new and interesting papers?

Comments

I often use semantic scholar (https://www.semanticscholar.org) as my first place to search on new topics.

Once you get the search results up you can then refine and sort by: relevancy, recency as well as “citation count” and “most influential papers”.

The later I find especially useful when exploring a new topic.

They have a login account but to be honest I haven’t really explored what that offers. Anyone have an account and finding that useful?

Yes. I don't use it heavily, but I have set up an account and added a moderate number of articles to it. It has an option to notify you of new, relevant publications that works pretty well. It tends to find articles my pubmed RSS searches / google alerts miss.
