Context (for those who might not be in academia): many academic publishing companies (like Elsevier) charge exorbitant prices for researchers to get their papers published as open access. Meanwhile, none of these researchers actually get anything in return for it (except for major street cred if their papers get highly cited)
i’ve been thinking the same too, a decentralized place to upload / review papers with proper authorization with ORCID and the like would be nice
