Perhaps the field has become too fragmented. The MagPi Magazine [1] comes to mind, it focuses on hobbyist uses of the Raspberry Pi with articles on programming, projects. But as I say, m that's pretty niche.

And even then I feel like any sort of magazine is anachronistic in this day and age. Too bad too because unlike the various far flung forums, slack channels, or subreddits, a magazine was a nice centralized melting pot where even the cover of the magazine could ignite an entire electronics revolution (and here I'm thinking of course about the Popular Electronics cover [2] that featured the Altair 8800). We've lost our "pulp watercoolers".
