I like magazine, what's wrong with it?

cloudless, 10 months ago

A magazine is predominantly a one-way communication between the publisher and its readers, it is a periodical publication.

What we are using now (kbin/lemmy) are fully interactive, not passive consumption like reading a magazine. We are constantly adding and updating content instead of being periodic.

The term "magazine" seems to emphasize more on reading the articles.

I prefer "community" which puts more focus on people with common interests.

@cloudless Thanks cloudless!

I think communities like these are extra useful on the Fediverse given the more fractured nature.
