The German 'iX magazine fuer professionelle IT' is pretty good, but it also has devops, the whole stack from networking, data storage, compute, cloud, development en ops. I bought one on holiday. It's nice to browse through pages for a change. A fixed A4 keeping your attention on 1 page.

I think it's only in German, but perhaps the AI can auto-translate the pdf's.
Computing sort of got too big. Early on, Byte could be eclectic with lots of different architectural discussions and hardware like circuit cellar. But from my perspective they got to a point where they were, for lack of a better word, pretty random. I was at an event where they were trying to reboot sometime in the 2000s but not sure what the market was for a popular computing magazine trying to cover all the bases at that point.
Chaos manor was sort of a proto-blog. I enjoyed it well enough. As I say, Byte worked well enough as sort of extended hobbyist/nerd zine until that didn't really work as well any longer.

BYTE was best before Jerry Pournelle showed up.

Chaos manor was <uncharitable>. Readers were being both talked at and down to. BYTE would have been better without it.
