Something I learnt about only recently (it may have been on here): for many arxiv preprints, if you replace the "x" in the url with a "5", you will get a nice accessible html :html5: version!

example:
ar5iv.org/abs/2203.08489

Works quite well for reading on your phone in the train for example 👍

Sign of change in research culture, not just research policy:

"REF 2021’s #openaccess #mandate for journal articles and conference proceedings has arguably had the greatest impact in driving open access engagement by researchers [in the UK]. What was once a niche pursuit that was opposed by many researchers is now overwhelmingly regarded as an everyday part of the research lifecycle."

For those using data repositories (e.g. Dryad, Zenodo, OSF, etc), do you have a preferred repository or do you change repositories depending on the use case?

If the latter, what factors dictate where you choose to share your data?
