    You know what else negatively impacts scientific communication? Sites like nature.com that require a login to read a full article.

    To be clear, the return of Trump is a disaster for the planet. But also a lot of important information is behind paywalls or requires that you give up privacy to read it.

      i heard there’'s this just *horrible * site called sci hub that allows you to put in links from paywalled scientific articles and gives you access to read them and it works for pretty much every scientific paper out there…
