That’s great to hear. In my experience every second paper I ran into needed a subscription, although I am guessing they weren’t federally funded research or from a country where that isn’t required by law

We really need to push for fully open access research. I believe the ACM has announced a transition to open access, so there is that. However I think there needs to be legislated open access. Specifically, any federally funded research (or research from publicly funded universities) that is to be published should be forced to be open access. In America I don’t think that’s going to happen for a while lmao, but hopefully other countries can do this.
