The archive edition.
Your stand learned to remember — and to find what it remembered.
The pile, as it should be: patient.
A newsstand you can only read forwards is half a newsstand. This is about the other half: the issues you have already read, the ones you meant to keep, and the sentence you are certain you saw somewhere in February.
A shelf for the ones you keep
Saved issues used to sit in the same stream as everything else, distinguished by a small mark and your memory. They now have a shelf of their own — a separate, quiet view that holds only the things you deliberately kept. Nothing is auto-saved on your behalf, because a shelf that fills itself is just a stream with extra steps.
Search that reaches all the way back
Search now reads the whole issue, not the subject line and the sender. It reaches as far back as your plan retains, which on Premium is as far back as you have been here. It is also, we think, the least urgent search box ever built: no suggestions, no recent-searches history, no attempt to guess what you meant.
Unlimited aliases, on Premium
One address was always going to be a compromise. Premium now creates as many as you like, which is less about volume than about separation — the point of an alias is that closing it costs you nothing.
- One per publication, so an unsubscribe that gets ignored can be enforced from your side.
- One per topic, so a season of interest can be ended in a single act.
- One you hand over at a conference, and close on the train home.
Retention on the free plan is unchanged. Search finds everything your plan still holds — it does not resurrect issues that have already aged out.
