Arxiv + google + papers with code is how I do it. As another user pointed out, focus on solving your problem. By doing this, you'll search and then naturally find relevant papers. After a while, a lot of papers become super easy to read because they're conceptually easy to grasp. Once you hit this point it becomes extremely easy to skim the content that you're searching for. Once I identify something interesting in my problem space or adjacent then getting through it is the hard part.
TLDR: Focus on a problem domain and search within it. Don't just shotgun it. If its relevant enough to you it will show up. Use filters like HN and whatnot.
