The original journal-watcher would print 'No strongly matching articles found' to Telegram every other day. That 'nothing new' message is pure noise — it costs the user's attention without delivering signal. Replaced with silent mode: if scoring returns zero matches, output nothing at all. Notifications should be reserved for genuine signal, not absence-of-signal confirmation. The cost of a notification is non-zero; spend it only when there's something worth seeing.
