Thanks to @zugenia.bsky.social for inviting me to be part of the @celj.bsky.social session at #MMLA26 on supporting journal editors--really good to get to sit with people committed to the project of helping people make their ideas public against increasing hostility to the public exchange of ideas

🚨 UPDATE: We paused the survey because over 3,000 scammers screwed it up for the rest of us. We are manually reviewing the responses to ensure legitimate respondents get through. This will take some time. We are adding security measures before we re-open the survey. Thanks for your patience!
