I will say after looking at hundreds of journals and papers, it's also true of the others. -Another algebraist.

I think if you look at a new algebra paper in a good journal, it's as likely to be interesting as a random algebra paper in a good journal from 1980. (Of course neither is anywhere near 100%, there were many boring papers back then too.)

If you look at a new algebra paper in J Algebra, of course it's not going to be interesting, what do you expect.

Dude, I spent seven years doing nothing but that in hundreds of journals. I still maintain my view.
