Are academics going to be sufficiently incentivized to do free online peer review for meaningless internet points à la StackOverflow? I have my doubts.

  Academics already do their peer review for free. They don't even get internet points.

    They get points from their peers. That's even more valuable to them.

      That would be the same with this system.

  Onarbor treats works and reviews the same. Both can be funded and voted on. This is like the HHMI-founded journal, eLife, or several other modern academic journals. Enabling fundable reviews is done to reward high quality reviewing and because we realize not everyone is a creator. Therefore, we wanted to offer more ways to participate in the network. Also, commenting threads are organized by review, which are tied to individual works. Our model for commenting on reviews is Github repositories and issue tracking: Onarbor: https://onarbor.com/review/35/fma-uoboros/chemistry-or-art https://onarbor.com/review/35/fma-uoboros/chemistry-or-art Github: https://github.com/ummjackson/dogeapi-php/pull/11 https://github.com/ummjackson/dogeapi-php/pull/11
