Currently read the mainstream things: Stratechery, Wired, Verge, Arstechnica, etc. but looking to diversify my sources in 2024. Any recommendations?

I'm always amazed by the information that can be had in the comments section on this site.

I've recently started reading bluesnews again after a 15+ year hiatus. I love how the site seems to be more or less exactly the same. Runs great on all my devices (crazy I have to point that out in modern times).

For those that don't know it's primarily a game news site but has some daily rundowns of some various tech news stories so I think it fits the criteria.

Agreed, many HN posts discussing articles/posts from the aforementioned sites have comments that give more insight than TFA and maybe even corrections. Which you would not get by reading the articles/posts alone.

I would love any recommendations for physical magazines. I know they are mostly ads and yada yada, but I like to sit down with an actual magazine for some reason.

2600. It's worth a subscription for at least one year.

"Communications of the ACM" (https://cacm.acm.org/) is a great source for a variety of topics. It recently went digital-only and is included in an ACM membership.
