    So regardless of payment, doing what is right and reasoned.

    It's too late sometimes doing it the other way around with money first (and people in business know that).

    #Incentives help as a carrot - but I don't see that as a concrete understanding or keyword to rely on in life's context (not to be profited from to this degree and question to who and why people pay all this / why is it free?).

    Motivation is better, But again hard if money is mostly before.

  5. A new study finds that by 2023, APC-based #OpenAccess articles had surpassed paywalled subscription articles in #retractions.

  8. @elsua54 You are missing the point with this part of #incentives.

    Incentives suggests / demands you give something extra when eventually (especially Tech) you have to accept less / go back to basic protocols / interface in order to cancel out most of the bad mixed in.

    Features (advertising) also did solve the problem first on a big scale such as better interface + connectability (universal sign-in) as a mainstream effort - but at cost of #mainstream #VentureCapitalism pumping / subsidising it.

    3 ⏺️ #Incentives I agree but from bad positions we have only but to accept the bad hole we dug [#inherited from our predecessors] and the casino we entered and help each other to 'get out' somewhat.
    Just to take the hit, not try fix the bad methods always (as the fix is not to stay in the #casino / keep digging a #hole for others].

    To take the hit, #exit is the main way when #systems become so developed.

    Tg back to raw #basics / not #paying / not accepting so much #cheating #swindle.
