In the 90s? That is so not true me think Paul is willfully being forgetful.
When your service is small or not easily visible - while still doing significant good - it's hard to find enough people willing to spend their time and resources helping you sustain it.
When your service becomes big enough to be noticeable - which is the arXiv is in by now - it also becomes attractive to the people looking to subvert it to be something else, to enshittify it, and so the limiting factor in getting help becomes the risk to its integrity.
So it's probably better to not rely on platforms in the first place...
It is unbelievable how much more communicative power a paper with a site vs just a paper on arxiv.
Are there scientists that don't know libgen or scihub?
- I want to have a DOI for something I also sell, like a book.
- I want a DOI for something that is still being submitted, and I don't want to share it yet with everybody, only a select few (like reviewers).
- A previous version of your paper has a serious problem (could be an error, or containing a password you would rather not share), and you want to remove public access to it.
"In 2021, the journal Nature declared arXiv one of the “10 computer codes that transformed science,” praising its role in fostering scientific collaboration. (The article is behind a paywall—unlock it for $199 a year.)"
Burned!
Re ArXiv
I read in their licensing that some papers are licensed for non-commercial use. Does anyone know an easy way to tell which are licensed that way?
I normally see the main, ArXiv page for a specific paper. Is there something on the page for licensing that I overlooked?
ArXiv accepts .ps (PostScript), .tex (LaTeX source), and .pdf (PDF) ScholarlyArticle uploads.

The internet and the web are the most transformative platforms in all of science, though.
2. It's also worthless.
3. arXiv is for scientific papers and not just random PDFs or project reports.
4. Creating a programming language can be science but something tells me that yours isn't.
I've seen solutions to the halting problem published on something called ResearchGate. I don't know anything about it but maybe you can upload there. Or just use your website or Google Drive, like how a normal person shares PDFs.
Personally I’d be fascinated to hear what your language was that warranted a paper submission to arXiv if you want to share.
I've never submitted to arxiv, is there an appeals/recourse process or some such, or is it just stuck in indefinite limbo or what?
