So next time any of the big publishers contact you: IGNORE THEM. Or better yet, accept the review assignment, but don't do it!

I think that the only response that will have any consequence is simply NOT TO RESPOND AT ALL. By not responding, you slow down the review process. The editors get frustrated. The reviewers are less qualified. And the authors become frustrated by how their manuscript was treated.

Probably not.

Will the editor read the letter and say "You know, you're right. I should quit my job and work for another more equitable journal." Or maybe "Good point, I should try to convince our CEOs to lower the APCs. Something has to change!"

@joplinapp @20i congrats!! And all done without AI !

Update. Next month the #royalsociety will reopen the question of expelling #elonmusk. This time the provocation is Musk's "violence is coming" address to a far-right rally in London last week.

@brembs Just repeating what the director of our institute said when we asked for 10,000 euros to start a diamond open access journal.

@brembs Transformative agreements are the solution. Instead of paying 4000 euros to publish an article, its now free for authors and our institution only pays 3000.

@joplinapp No thanks. But thanks for making this an optional plugin!
