Completely unacceptable indeed. So wrong in so many ways. Sad…
*Simultaneous submissions* are a breach of ethics and hurt peer review. We just found out one. The paper was sent to MDPI on 26 Dec 2022. The exact same paper was sent to us on 31 Dec; we rejected it on 5 Jan. MDPI published it a few weeks later. Authors have been black listed.

I am increasingly concern with MDPI. Lastest is their Reviewer Article Selector where “reviewers can select manuscripts that spark their interest”. This is a breach of editorial roles, waters down peer review, and creates a conflict of interest. This is not acceptable.
