Yeah, I understand, that's how I grew up too! And once they changed from "ADS sort" to anything else, no one has ever been happy again.

Yeah, I hate the loading assets status bar on ADS or SciX. You just never know when it is going to complete! I hadn't noticed a difference in responsiveness of late, unlike say Zenodo, which has gone to the pits over the past few months.

Ridiculous take. Just ridiculous. Where's the reddit downvote to put this where it belongs.

And ADS is clear that they will implement an "astronomy" domain scope setting to narrow the possible noise from searching across all domains. Yet how is it worse for astronomy to have access to all NASA-related domains in their search? This is FUD, bro!

"not designed specifically for astronomy" -- That's a terrible take, Keith. Have you (or has anyone) checked that the astronomy-oriented ADS experience actually changes with SciX? I've switched to SciX in the past few months and have yet to find any such problem.

Oooh, that is interesting. I though that <1 hr of deep sleep was correct for me, since it never feels like I've recovered...
