>>14120178>The journal filters the schizosNo reviewers (are supposed to) do that and do not receive monetary compensation (nor do they need it; filtering nonsense is in their best interest). Scientists could publish and curate everything themselves since they pretty much already do.
> that the University gets a cheap yearly subscription, professors dont have to pay for papers at allI'm aware. If the University is paying, people employed are not getting it "for free". This is besides the point anyway since the Universities still pay something, this system still exists and scientists are wrangled into participating in it. Of course if you're at a US uni half the profs and higher-ups in administration have met at someone's Bar-Mitzvah at one point or another so they don't care.
