Ask HN: What physical publication do you still buy?
8 points by sergiotapia 47 days ago | rank | favorite | 13 comments
I remember as a kid loving to read National Geographic and Club Nintendo in Bolivia.

I want to subscribe to a PHYSICAL publication, to get news or entertainment it's fine. But something physical.

I want to slow it down and have it be my little morning ritual. Like my dad used to read the newspaper.



I subscribe to The Guardian Weekly [1]. I read it at the weekend.

I'm a long-time Guardian reader, but I'm trying to reduce my exposure to constantly-updating, anxiety-inducing news. I only recently subscribed but it seems to be having a positive effect.

The subscription also includes access to their food and drink app, which I enjoy, and an app that gives me a static, digital version of that day's newspaper.

Lapham’s Quarterly (though the print version has been on hiatus — and we’re told it will eventually start back up as the publication finishes its resurrection). Looking forward to my print copy of the “Energy” issue.


The economist. I like that it’s the right volume that can finish it in time for the next one.


And weekly is the right cadence for seeing the bigger picture for news too.


The New Atlantis, The New Criterion, The Hedgehog Review, and Garden & Gun. And then Stack magazine, and independent magazine subscription. They pick a different one from somewhere around the world and send it to you.


Buying boxes of NatGeo mags at estate/yard sales is not a bad answer. Lot's of folks want to get rid of them, and they are still in every way amazing.


I subscribe to Wired, American Chess, and Architectural Digest. I had a sub to Raspberry Pi Magazine, but now I just read the free PDF version.


Garden and Gun (https://gardenandgun.com/)

It's absolutely not a 2nd Amendment apologist rag.


2600 magazine baby. (With cash, as always.)


Make Magazine.

I’d be interested in other good physical periodicals.


2600 Magazine


Until it went out of print, The Modern Farmer. It was directed to the homesteading lifestylist wishful thinkers. It was quarterly. The quality was astounding. Each magazine like a book of shorts with exquisite photography. Perhaps it will return. Signs of the time.

Publications received go into the book stack to read, Tsundoku style.
