But I totally understand why Anandtech is shuttering; once darlings of
the early web, tech websites are just not profitable anymore. The
advertising dollars aren't there, and people have little desire to
read ten-page in-depth reviews about the latest-n-gratest video cards
anymore.

Definitely no on the long reviews. But I did like their guides on
various bits of hardware. And I really liked their zero bullshit
podcasts. I fondly remember Brian Klug deep diving into power amplifier
improvements on new 4G phones while driving to work. Wouldn't really
want to read about that sort of thing although, well, I work in telecom
now so that sort of thing's a little more relevant professionally.
