I'll agree that calling communities "magazines" is weird.
The word reminds me of outdated (and overpriced) print periodicals or ammo holders. They may as well call them 8-tracks or cassettes. Maybe the word will evolve. "Sub" took on it's own meaning after Reddit.
"Fetch" still isn't happening, so we'll see.
