Dear researchers,
I am sick of #Elsevier and their antics (ridiculous APCs, inaccessible articles, unauthorised data-mininig, etc.) and want to avoid publishing with them as much as possible.
Can you suggest good journals in the following topics / fields (society journals welcome):
1. #microalgae
2. #molecularbiology
3. #crispr
4. #sustainability
#opensource #openaccess #academicresearch #academia
Please #boost so I can reach other academics.

@_siddharthsoni @kfitz @mpe I can live with "clunky" but I'm not sure what you mean by "expensive". Most of the current institutional repositories are based on open source platforms.
Of course, you do need staff and some sort of server infrastructure to run them. You may also have to pay for a service provider, if you use one for the stuff that you cannot do on your own. But compared to many other things that the universities are spending their money on, this shouldn't be hugely expensive.
It's a grim question and one that, obviously, pales into insignificance beside the human cost if this happens, but: what happens to a university's institutional repository when the institution fails/goes bankrupt/closes? Has any university taken digital preservation precautions?
