Have you tried publishing in Nature? Did they tell you that yeah, we're happy to publish your paper for a small fee because we only publish high-quality papers, wink-wink, nudge-nudge?
Do you often get emails from Nature soliciting your papers, or asking you to be a keynote speaker in their conference, dear Dr/ Professor <your name spliced on your co-author's name when you were still a PhD student>?
No? Well, that's because "predatory journals" are not the same thing as Nature.
I mean fuck Nature, don't make me defend those assholes, but please be aware of what the hell you're talking about.
