Happy to see this out! Not only because Martin Petr's tool #slendr is incredibly useful for anyone doing evolutionary #genetic simulations, but also because it's been peer reviewed though a system that doesn't profiteer off academic work, nor impose paywalls on its readers!
Thanks Emiliano Trucchi, Liisa Loog, 2 anonymous reviewers and @PeerCommunityIn !

The #StopElsevier campaign is gearing up for protests in several countries this Spring. Help spread the word by posting these posters around campus, email us to participate in #DirectAction or join the boycott to protest #Elsevier's ties to the #FossilFuel industry.

I know I regularly shoot myself in the foot on many fronts, but I still stand by my #BoycottAmazon stance.
I like @pluralistic's "dandelion" metaphor (h/t https://sciences.social/@toolbear@union.place) but Amazon is not on my radar (I don't buy, advertise, promote or reap any benefit from them, other than my publisher having them as one of their many distributors).

A video of my recent talk on #EthicalPublishing - part of the @PeerCommunityIn webinar series - is now available online: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzLgGSNq0Wk
I talk about the rise of #profiteering commercial publishing via manufactured prestige, its detrimental effects on #academia, the emergence of #diamondOA alternatives, & forms of #CollectiveAction we can use to take power back, including the #StopElsevier campaign: https://stopelsevier.wordpress.com
Would you like to speak to the manager? Now you can! En masse! The #StopElsevier campaign provides direct links to the #editorial boards of major #Elsevier journals, which can become your pen pals with the click of a button, to tell them about Elsevier's fossil fuel-promoting activities. 5/n

Are you an academic concerned that #Elsevier's profiteering publishing practices are extracting money and labor from you and your colleagues for free? Are you terrified that Elsevier's support for #FossilFuels is helping accelerate #ClimateBreakdown?
Don't fret! The #StopElsevier campaign has got you covered, with a wealth of resources to help take power away from them via collective action.
