Freya Blekmanthe enshittification of arxiv has started. this is very worrisome in my opinion. And very very bad for open science and academic integrity in general. I guess that's our own academic fault for not funding arxiv sufficiently, now we get late capitalist distopia instead https://jobs.chronicle.com/job/37961678/chief-executive-officer
Prof Heino Falcke@freyablekman Is that so? It is a non-profit organization at least. The problem is who controls it in the long run. A member driven organization would be better, of course, but they are also not easy to control when they become too big and powerful .
I guess a federated system would have been better.
