Do you subscribe to any magazines or newspapers?

[Cromulent]

I just thought it would be interesting to see what people read. I subscribe to the Financial Times as my main source of news and then Practical Electronics, New Scientist and Scientific American for magazines because I'm very keen to improve my science knowledge in general.

What about you?

Magazines?

Newspapers?

What are these?

 

[MagicBoy]

Yes, I do.

 

[Rroff]

I'm surprised any magazines or newspapers survive any more. I've not had any subscriptions since early 2000s.

 

[baldmonk]

I use readly on iPad if that counts

Long time ago , carbon based life forms known as ‘humans’ would harvest dead trees and produce a carbon based substance known as ‘paper’. This was a thin, flexible substrate upon which ‘ink’ was placed to form words and letters and even pictures.
Some humans would collect these over periods of years and in many cases they would have them ‘posted’ (see: ‘snail’ Mail) under an automatic subscription service

F1 Racing, its nice to read something that isn't on a screen.

The Economist: dead tree and electronic version. I prefer the dead tree version as it encourages me to sit and read properly instead of a skim read.

 

[inogen]

Economist sometimes. Not this year.

Private Eye and Viz.

yes playboy and euroguy.

Isn't euroguy next door to paraguy?

 

[Hades]

paraguy?

Is that a magazine about the armed forces?

I get my news from Facebook

PC Pro, Retro Gamer and Fusion magazines are the three I have. I also have Readly on my iPad but I loathe reading magazines (anything!) on a screen. I'll likely take a subscription to MagPi or similar soon. It's far easier to follow tutorials on read in general from a paper magazine.

 

[watercooledman]

there is also ukguy

Same here, it’s nice just to sit and read with a coffee.

Also get GQ and Total Film.

I get a read of my parents P&J paper (a proper regional news paper) when I visit them at the weekend.

Read it cover to cover on the way to the ferry (Dover > Calais when that was a thing) and then in France and then on the way back again, too. Quality piece of paper even though JR was and perhaps still is a Tiswas.

No subscriptions these days though.

Let me guess, anti-vax?

I get the following delivered.

The I (for the quizzes mainly)
The Guardian (Left wing view)
The Times (Right wing view)
Ride magazine (motorbikes)

I much prefer reading from something physical. Same with books.
