        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.
