In June 2015, Gameland Publishing House decided to stop publishing a printed version of Hacker magazine and focus on digital versions of the publication.
There are several reasons for this decision at once, according to a statement by the team of the magazine "Hacker"[1]:
- A sharp increase in the cost of production and distribution of "printing." This drove the cost of the magazine to a sky-high 800 rubles at retail. We do not want to continue to offer Hacker at such a high price.
- A huge amount of time and effort that is spent on the paper version. We can use it to produce content, and instead fix layout bugs.
- The transition of the bulk of readers to digital versions and the site. Most are already more convenient to read in numbers. And in turn, it is important for us to offer a convenient and easy way to read and discuss our materials. To do this, we need to focus on online.
The publication will continue to release a version for iPad and Android, a PDF version, a website хакер.ru.
