I used to subscribe to Flyer directly myself, but last Christmas I was gifted my subscription as a Christmas present from someone in my family. Then, as lockdown kicked off, the print version was discontinued.

To be really honest with you, I have not read a single page of the magazine since the print edition stopped. I have just got an email notifying me that my subscription is going to expire and - incredibly reluctantly - I'm not going to renew as I'm not sure there is really any benefit to me in doing so (I get all the other stuff I get access to, but I haven't touched it for 9 months and just doubt I will).
Anyway, not sure what the point of this post was other than to lament the print edition and provide some honest feedback that might be useful - I might be speaking on behalf of just myself, but maybe I'm actually representing a silent majority?.
Like you, though I struggled and tried really hard, I gave up on the i-version of Flyer Mag and also have not read a single iCopy.
However, unlike you, I will continue to subscribe as I think the Flyer outfit needs all the help it can get and I regard my sub, which is an open ended DD, as my admission ticket to the virtual pub that is the forum, which I have enjoyed for many years and continue to enjoy despite its occasional shortcomings and occasional unpleasantness. At least the unilateral modding has been sorted.
Put it down to age, impatience or just the love of holding a paper magazine:
Hopefully Flyer magazine will return as a tangible object some time in the future.
Me too, I'd like to know how it's going
