- Reposted by Johan RooryckThis is part of where your APCs go when you publish in MDPI and Frontiers. They use that money to buy more influence. Until funders, WoS, take meaningful action, they will continue to use muzzle velocity to overcome criticisms.
- Plus, MDPI/Frontiers spend big money to convince governments they're not just legit, but leaders. Frontiers just sponsored WEF Davos, MDPI signed a deal with German national science agency. 🇩🇪+MDPI: www.timeshighereducation.com/news/germany...

- Reposted by Johan RooryckOLH has just released its Artificial Intelligence (AI) Policy! After a year-long consultation with our journal editors, the policy sets out how generative AI can be used responsibly in academic publishing. Read more: www.openlibhums.org/news/885/
- Reposted by Johan Rooryck"Affordable scaling options are then available as journals grow" This 'freemium' model is clearly a ploy to get new journals on board in order to pressure them into publishing more articles, probably through special issues knowing MDPI.

- #SpecialIssues have fueled the growth of some of the largest #OpenAccess publishers. Does a journal that allows a #GuestEditor to both plan a special issue and write many articles in it have a conflict of interest? #scicomm #peerreview @science.org www.science.org/content/arti...

- Reposted by Johan RooryckIt is unclear to me how much traction Glossa: a journal of general linguistics is getting on BlueSky. I am thinking of switching communication about new papers to LinkedIn, which gives better insight into the # of views garnered. Give us a like if you want Glossa to stay on the Blue side of things.
