I have a two publications to my name, mostly for being *attached* to the group that actually wrote and edited the papers. (I did write software based on some of the ideas in the paper, but they weren't originally my ideas.)

OK. Whatever. What I'm curious about is, I'm on and, lately, I get pretty regular notifications of new on one of these papers, about once a month. It's a total of 80 since September 2018. Is this typical?

It's not a bad paper: I think it's actually quite good. Still, it's not "groundbreaking"? It's about an approach to where we use computer simulation that integrates multiple models to validate our overall understanding of an organism. Is that what folks are into these days?

Anyway, I just want a hint, because I'm not likely to actually read all these papers that cite us, if this is, like, paper mill output or are other folks legitimately taking on the ideas and building on them.
