Your work usually has 1,000x the exposure and external validation compared to doing it outside those environments, where it would just get discarded and ignored.

Not a complain, though. It's a requirement for our world to be the way it is.

Is there truth to this? Do you have any sources to link to on this

Sure dude, here's the link to the UN Resolution about which researchers deserve attention and which others do not, signed by all countries around the world [1].

*sigh*

It's pretty obvious, if you publish something at Harvard, MIT, et. al. you even get a dedicated PR team to make your research stand out.

If you publish that on your own, or on some small research university in Namibia, no one will notice.

I might be lying, though, 'cause there's no "proof".
