What are pragmatic things that we can do to push for open access for academic papers?

You start with the scientists make it prestigious to publish in an open source journal, make it sexy, make it lucrative.

Well APS opened a new open access journal PRX which is more prestigious even than PRL, so I don't think that's the problem. Also Nature, which is like, the most prestigious, is also open access...

Nature is open access? Like what recently? And I assume they ask for a metric ton in cash to do that?

It surprised me as well. But apparently, it's up to the authors (or their institution) to choose.

> From January 2021, authors submitting primary research articles* to Nature will be able to choose to publish their work using either the traditional publishing route OR Open Access.

> *Non-primary research (e.g. Reviews, Comments, News & Views) is not eligible for Open Access and is only published using the traditional publishing route.

> The APC to publish Open Access in Nature is €9,500
