Reposted by David WierichsOded Rechavi @odedrechavi.bsky.social · 08/11/2025The idea is to decouple the journals from the review step. They’ll still exist, but they’ll need to add other value. They’ll highlight, curate, add new perspectives. If they do a good job they can still be prestigious (like Scientific American or Wired) (1.2) 👇 45115
