What do you think of quantamagazine.org
My 2 cents is, I don't think they do a good enough job explaining concepts. You have this magazine that is supposed to have these subject-matter experts and I keep feeling like they neglect to explain concepts well enough or why they matter. I know it's advanced math, but I think they can still do a better job. I have some math background and still much of the stuff is hard to follow.

I think they have the same issues as any other popular science publication, where they are trying to tiptoe between making it palatable for a general (math/science inclined?) audience and people familiar with the field, and end up in an awkward middle ground.
While I'm not a massive fan of their writing, they cover quite a few interesting topics. I generally find clicking straight through to the paper/research they are covering is a much better use of my time.
