A lot have in some capacity; see preprint servers like arxiv.org.

The problem is that without papers published in actual journals, you are literally worth nothing in academia. Nothing. Can’t stress this enough, publish or perish is no joke. You won’t get any kind of job without a stupidly high number of published papers. Young researchers have nowhere near the bargaining power to initiate any kind of change there. Neither do older ones, tbh.
