I published two papers recently in different MDPI journals. The peer reviews were thorough and fair, and the process efficient. There was no charge for one of the papers, and the charge for the other was reasonable. I have no basis otherwise to defend or condemn MDPI, but the blog and some of the comments here seem to reflect academic and cultural snobbery. I agree with the post that suggested we deal with any issues specifically rather than tar the entire business. Bullying is not appropriate.
