New comment by jessriedel in "Welcome to the New Space Age"

I wish I had good recommendations for you. Quanta can be quite good, but it misses sometimes. Most coverage of fundamental physics, especially theory, fails (for obvious reasons) to provide the key context that progress in the field is very slow and getting slower.

There are a few excellent specialist blogs, like Resonaances for particle physics,

but they are not very accessible to outsiders. Sean Carroll, Sabine Hossenfelder, and Peter Woit are pretty good and accessible

but they aren't neutral; that's fine since they are personal blogs, but it can be difficult for laymen to get an objective picture of the field.
