AGREED!!

I ended my subscription after 55 years. All articles got
too superficial, full of errors, very little solid information,
and it got too focused (pun) on fancy photography above all else.

Also got tir4ed of the endless hero-worship and pandering of
subjects just so they can sell more videos and special mags
about the very same subject. Too much turd polishing going on
as well.
