I'm in the magazine business, so I always have a bunch of subscriptions. I like giving my eyes a break from screens. Right now I get:

Wired
Architectural Digest
Bon Apetit
Travel and Leisure
AARP
Vanity Fair

Mother Earth News is a nice one to get. Lends itself to old school holding it in your hands and reading in a comfy chair by the fire. Practical useful information.

The only paper magazine I get is The New Yorker. I subscribe to online versions of the Wall Street Journal & The NY Times.

I used to subscribe to Architectural Digest & always some sort of travel magazine but the free online choices are sufficient now.

I like to keep at least one reasonably current magazine in the bedroom so I have something to read instead of just picking up the iPhone in the middle of the night.

A lot of magazines here. Several were my husband's. I am getting refunds on some of those. He had cognitive issues and was renewing every time they sent a notice even though he had renewed the month before.

Kiplinger's
Time
Fortune
Real Simple
Reader's Digest
Smithsonian
Air & Space
Family Circle
HGTV
American Legion
AARP

I am letting most of these lapse. I just renewed Reader's Digest, though. And really enjoy HGTV.I save those.

What magazines do you have?
None. I don't have time to read them, so I stopped any subscriptions years ago. Don't even take the paper.

Otherwise, digital only. The Atlantic is the only one, I think.
LOL. We used to read High Country News. DH still lurks on the Moab Times-Independent to see who died and what new hotels are littering the landscape.

Otherwise, Huff Post online, maybe the Atlantic. No paid subscriptions....just not THAT interested. Too much free stuff.
