Motivation:
Reviewers were relatively fast and quite helpful. Verdict was 'minor revisions'. Time from acceptance to publication was longer than expected given the review process, and working with the typesetters was challenging (no direct contact possible, and corrections on proofs are not always handled systematically).

Motivation:
The reviews were from experts in the subfield, came in swiftly and were quite helpful. After publication, the journal manager shared our paper with many of the people whose research we cited, thus drawing attention to our work. We were happy with this exposure, as we had picked Open Linguistics specifically because its open access nature.
