Agree, was thinking of submitting a proposal like this. A few ways to easily improve most journals:
-Require data and code to be shared
-Open access, but without the huge author fees most open access journals charge
-If you do charge any fees, use them to pay reviewers for fast reviews
Shouldn’t reviewers be paid, regardless of fees? It is a tough job, and there should strong incentives to do it properly.
