Motivation:
No APC journal (free to publish) could be considered a slow editorial process; however, it is rigorous and I am usually satisfied by reviewer comments. Editors changing your text line by line may not be ideal, but this also shows their engagement, can't comment negatively on that.
If you are in a rush to publish, not the correct place to publish a normal article. Allow 6-8 months minimum after the acceptance of your article.

Motivation:
Very quick rejection from editorial team due to lack of space, helpful to allow us to resubmit quickly to another journal.

Motivation:
One of the reviewers enjoyed the paper and suggested publication. The second reviewer was obviously uncomfortable with statistics and did not understand the study design, however they never said to reject the paper. A different reviewer should have been chosen. It felt that the editor never read the paper and strongly guided by one reviewer and not the other.
