[Kai Branch](https://www.densediscovery.com/issues/117?ref=onemanandhisblog.com) on the reason he still publishes a magazine in the digital age:

> Take newsletters for example: I believe we’re currently in the volatile phase of the [hype cycle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hype%5Fcycle?ref=onemanandhisblog.com) where everyone – startups, publishers, VCs – is trying to get a slice of the pie. I find this gold rush mentality and the FOMO that comes with it pretty exhausting – even just as a bystander.  
> The print world serves as a kind of refuge from that feeding frenzy. In a field where success usually means ‘breaking even’, I think what motivates print publishers most is the belief that they have something meaningful to contribute to their chosen niche.

I have, increasingly, taken to [reading print magazines again](https://onemanandhisblog.com/2020/09/subscribed-three-essential-magazines/) for exactly that reason — including Kai's own excellent magazine, *[Offscreen](https://www.offscreenmag.com/?ref=onemanandhisblog.com)*.
