I edited 2 volumes for Frontiers back in 2021 - before I knew better. Never again - it was challenging to get them to adhere to their own ethics guidelines & the “review” system is set up to avoid rejection as much as possible.

@frontiersin.bsky.social is a predatory publisher, and not an acceptable venue to publish in. For all those who still think the opposite, here’s an invitation to edit an issue of their earth science journal (I’m a philosopher), with an equally mind-boggling explanation.

For those who might be interested: I have a new paper forthcoming in Erkenntnis. It's about whether linguistic data on hedging support the popular knowledge norm of assertion (spoiler: it's not so clear that they do). philpapers.org/rec/MOREHA-6

Community Notes were never going to replace fact checking. It could offer something else, something complementary. So far it does not look like it is offering much. Saying that it is a new system still being tested is simply not good enough when you are Meta. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
