> I want actual organic review by the community, not by tiny groups of gatekeepers. But this happens—and good work is cited and talked about. I can't tell if you work in science, but this latter part is obvious. | ||

I do work in science, I am claiming that pre-publication / journalistic peer review is limiting (and biasing) the amount of post-publication / non-journalistic peer review that can happen, and it is not limiting this in a very reliable or even IMO particularly desirable way. There is definitely a problem with the over-production of junk science, and we definitely need a way to filter this out somehow. I am just claiming journalistic / pre-publication peer review does not do this effectively or reliably at all anymore (if it ever did). | ||
