@mike@sauropods.win @villavelius@mastodon.online @mattjhodgkinson @brembs@mastodon.social @Luke_Drury@mastodon.dias.ie @johannes_lehmann@fediscience.org This is interesting. But science can't just all be "preprint and done", can it? As flawed as it is, peer review on some level is needed, no? (I would prefer to have peer-reviewers and editors be fairly compensated for their labor, rather than all $ going to publishing companies that do nothing but format your pdf)
