> With so much money slushing around in the Open Research landscape these days, it is clear decisions are being made to move money to certain places. There is a brief window of opportunity to still include ResearchEquals in those decisions, but that window is rapidly closing.

Our platform runs for roughly โ‚ฌ25/day โ€” and anyone can publish on it for free. The APC for a single paper could instead keep ResearchEquals online for months: Nature: โ‚ฌ10,000 โ†’ ~400 days Scientific Data: โ‚ฌ2,390 โ†’ ~96 days PLOS Biology: $5,500 โ†’ ~190 days DM us if your OA funds need more purpose ๐Ÿ˜‰

The US Supreme Court is making it even more urgent for institutions to migrate away from US owned infrastructure. We're not affected as we manage ResearchEquals on European owned + located servers ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ Need help migrating? Maybe we can help โ€“ DM us! euobserver.com/224950/eu-un...

We spent the week hardening our security by encrypting secrets in a forward reliable manner. Easy to manage and keep information secure. We need your support to make sure the plumbing works - if you have any leads where we can seek financial support, send us a DM! git.libscie.org/researchequa...

Yes please - all we need is โ‚ฌ100k/year. Our operating funds are covered until ~end of 2027 and can use some support. Institutional backing is ~โ‚ฌ13k/year right now.

We are making ResearchEquals safe by design โ€“ we now require manual approval of new accounts and can quarantine accounts upon suspicious activity. This is about actively caring for the space we seek to create, not gatekeeping. All genuine research practice remains welcome.

Great to see the Open Source for Science Fund launched for the life sciences! We also need this for open scholarly infrastructure. Our funds run out end of 2027 and are actively looking for ways to sustain the project in a way that sustains our values.

ResearchEquals is not affected by the new tanstack breach Please check your own projects too โ€“ these security events are happening more frequently now and we need to keep each other informed. > TanStack npm Packages Compromised in Ongoing Mini Shai-Hulud Supply-Chain Attack ino.to/QECN1xY

We're being asked to provide feedback on types of statements that could be included in DOI metadata. Any additions/revisions you have that you'd like us to know about?

At the Future of Open Research conference, sponging up ideas for concrete action. ResearchEquals creates spaces for experimental forms of research, which informs new policies. Since our inception, this has popularised the notion of more diverse outputs. #FOR2026

Seems like all the cool kids are going, so are we cool by spillover? See you at #FOR2026 ๐Ÿ‘‹

We're going to the FOR conference and we would love to meet you there! buff.ly/Qqb2wzq DRA will be presenting a poster on how we're working to make open research skills accessible and equitable regardless of discipline, location or background. Stop by our poster, geek about OS or have a fun chat.

Research comes in many shapes and sizes. Based on incoming requests there are three new output types supported on ResearchEquals - Zine ๐Ÿ“‘ - Infographic โ„น๏ธ - Wiki ๐Ÿค Happy sharing!

We're continuously working with researchers to provide even better tooling for publishing and curating the research process. Using ResearchEquals and have feedback? Humans are at the ready to help! support@researchequals.com
