Scuttleblurb, David Kim's SubStack, sends out in-depth write ups of companies. It's technically an investing newsletter, but it's really more about the mechanics of a given industry and how a particular company or group of companies operates within that industry. Similarly, and these aren't newsletters but they do come out at newsletter-like frequencies: the Company Man and the Wendover Productions YouTube channels.

Granted, these aren't specialized in terms of a single industry or single tech field, but, if you're a business enthusiast / love learning about industries you previously didn't know about, these are excellent.

I think there will be a lot of money in focused industry newsletters over the next ten years or so.

This will be basically identical to the corporate media business of yore: start in publishing, build audience, use that to sell events/training (and then, eventually, someone comes along and consolidates all of them). There will be a twist, but...basically.

We aren't even at the start of this trend imo (a lot of the industry news is still distributed physically, I don't think current publications have really "cracked" the format/content organization yet either) as the replies kind of demonstrate.
