You write that the Gates Foundation “add[s] their voice to the chorus”, but is there actually another funder that so far has combined preprint mandate with refusal to pay APCs? Given their leading role in publishing reform, I expect that the Wellcome Trust and Howard Hughes will follow soon, maybe Chan Zuckerberg and Wallenberg Foundation too. But did any public funders announce such plans?

@johannes_lehmann@fediscience.org @Luke_Drury@mastodon.dias.ie @mattjhodgkinson@scicomm.xyz To my knowledge, you are correct: Gates is the first with such a policy.
