Academic publishing - pfft
(lemmy.world)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Obviously the one submitting the papers should not pay to influence the reviewers. Instead, it is the publishers obligation, who uses the service of the reviewers, to pay them. Just pay them the same amount if you don’t want to influence any of them & make the amount open and transparent.
