First review round: 45.6 weeks. Overall rating: 0 (very bad).
Outcome: Rejected.
Motivation:
The communication with the journal was extremely poor. Most of the emails we received were generic, copy-pasted responses. Eventually, they stopped replying altogether, forcing us to contact Springer Nature support just to get an update on the peer review status. Unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. We ultimately had to withdraw the manuscript because the journal was unable to secure a second reviewer and showed no willingness to discuss potential solutions.
