There are many blog posts that discuss journals and the publication process. While these often only provide anecdotal evidence for certain views, it can be helpful (or perhaps cathartic) to read about the thoughts and experiences of other philosophical researchers.
There are many blog posts that offer perspectives on what the best philosophy journals are. Some of them detail the results of polls while others are simply the thoughts of individual philosophers.
The PJIP recently published a report in the Blog of the APA looking into the results of the APA's Journal Surveys Project. You can read the full report on the APA's website here: 'Insights from the American Philosophical Association’s Journal Surveys Project'.
Some philosophy journals have dedicated pages to display information about their acceptance rates, response times, etc. While the location of these pages is often similar for journals with the same publisher, beyond this there is little consensus regarding where journal statistics are displayed; nor is it clear what metrics you'll find, nor even if they are calculated in the same way (i.e. Springer journals display median for review times, while most others tend to use mean averages).
The PJIP spreadsheet was created in the summer of 2023 and contained information about 49 philosophy journals. Information covered included the journals’ subject matter, word limit, type of peer review, open access status, rankings, impact information, acceptance rates, review times, reviewing quality, etc.
