I really can't understand this kind of operation. After submitting the manuscript, it took more than a month for major revisions, then another month for minor revisions. After the minor revisions, they rejected my submission. It wasted four months of my time. If you want to reject it, you could have done it earlier. Letting me revise and then rejecting it is a waste of time and energy. It's disgusting...

The initial review process takes at least one month to start, and it usually takes around one and a half months on average to receive the initial review results.

In 2026, it took 5 months for the submission process, with major revisions on 3.21, minor revisions on 4.27, and acceptance on 6.29. It feels okay, of course, the speed can't compare to MDPI. But the impact and recognition are still good!

How long does it take to receive feedback after the first review meeting? There were two reviewers in the first review, with no objections to the innovation. One recommended major revisions while the other recommended minor revisions. Why was a new reviewer invited after the first round of revisions? What is the reason for this?

Hello, my situation is similar. Can I ask what the outcome was later on?

The third review was rejected, and the third round reviewer highly suspected to be AI reviewer, completely ignored the modifications I made in the last round, suddenly changed their attitude, made their own decisions, and passionately rejected my submission... Wasting 7 months of my time. It left me with a deep psychological shadow.

1 day under review, 18 days for the first review, with a total of 10 suggestions from two reviewers. The editor requested major revisions, which were completed in 9 days before final acceptance.

When encountering an AI reviewer, they made up a bunch of non-existent references for me to cite, leaving me speechless.

After submitting on 3.23, it went under review. How long does it usually take for the review? How do we know if it has been sent for external review or not?

May I ask how long it takes to be assigned an assistant editor after submission? It has been a week since I submitted and I have not been assigned an assistant editor yet.
