The journal is extremely slow. The manuscript was submitted on March 6th, and a reminder was sent on May 14th. It was mentioned that one reviewer has provided feedback and the other reviewer is still reviewing. It is now June 12th and the review process is still ongoing. I am considering withdrawing my submission

The annual article output of the journal is relatively low, the number of editors is not many, and the review period is slightly long

What is the difference between "Awaiting Recommendation" and "Awaiting Decision"? What does "Awaiting Recommendation" mean in the first review?

Would other authors be notified if I request a follow-up on my submission? I submitted my work at the end of November 2022 and still haven't received any results. I'm completely frustrated

Sigh, it's already January 9th and there has been no feedback from the first review yet. I sent a reminder email once, but still Your manuscript is currently awaiting reviewer scores

Do you need me to remind you to submit the draft repeatedly?

Submission on 2022.12.02.
It is now 2023.12.02, a whole year has passed, neither accepted nor rejected.
The latest status updated today has changed from Awaiting Reviewer Scores to awaiting recommendation (the second revision just required some changes in the reference format, but it has been over three months since the second revision was submitted).
Basically, each process takes at least one month to start, with status updates on the last two days of each month or the first two days of each month, and each round of revisions involves a new editor, which I find quite confusing.
For those who are submitting for graduation, please be cautious, it is really too torturous

Brother, how is the paper going?

It has been a month since submission, and it is still in the Awaiting Reviewer Selection stage. This speed is too slow... Students who are eager to graduate should consider carefully before submitting

It has been twelve months, and it is still Awaiting Reviewer Scores. Is it considered a breach of contract? Would reminding the editorial office push things forward faster? Will it alert other co-authors? Does anyone have experience with this situation or any advice?

How long does the status "Awaiting Recommendation" last? It has been a month since the first draft was reviewed and it is still in the "Awaiting Recommendation" status. Can I send a reminder?

Brother, I have also been awaiting reviewer selection for a month. I'm curious to know how long it will take for the first-round submission comments to come out

After major repairs, "awaiting decision" has been waiting for over a month. Today, at the beginning of the month, it changed to "reviews pending". How long will this process continue? Will it be rejected?

After the major renovation, "awaiting decision" lasted for over a month. Today, at the beginning of the month, it changed to "reviews pending." What does this mean? Hopefully, it won't continue for another month.

Submitted in early October 2022, major renovations will begin in early February 2023, and hiring will be completed by the end of May 2023. It took 8 months in total, and the speed is really slow...

It is indeed a bit slow, so sometimes it is necessary to push the progress after one or two months.

Article on the application-oriented direction of intelligent materials, lasting for 6 months. During this period, there was one major revision and one minor revision. The opinions of the reviewers were very professional and greatly helped in improving the quality of the article. The first decision took 11 weeks, followed by 3 weeks after the major revision, and finally 1 week after the minor revision for acceptance.
