- cracker_jacks 6y agoThe preprint model has actually been wildly successful for many communities (https://arxiv.org/ https://arxiv.org/, https://www.biorxiv.org/ https://www.biorxiv.org/). I don't think anyone is arguing against peer review, but the idea of peer review and an established journal is being conflated. If anything, publishing established journals can create a level of implied authority that reduces much need scrutiny.
