There used to be an interface for quickly searching available magazines, subscribing, seeing population counts, etc. Does this not exist anymore, or am I just missing it?

Well, crud. After searching for 20 minutes I guess I found it right after posting.

So now it's under "Collections", then you have to switch to one of the other tabs from there...?

Is there some A / B testing going on? I still have Magazines in the top bar. Collections as far as I understood is simply a grouping of various communities & magazines that share the same related topics and I guess setting a collection as favorite will act like you subscribed to them (I haven't really used them before).

Check if any userstyle/userscript is hiding it maybe? It's definitely still there for me, and I'm sure @ernest would have said something if he was A/B testing removing it.

If you have enabled option "Show top bar" then "Magazines" will not be displayed at the top of the page between "People" and "Collections" and you will have to click "All magazines" at the end of top bar to go to the magazine search.

This is it, thanks.

I went through every link I could find several times - except apparently this one.

I don't think this is good UX at all, but at least this makes just a little more sense.
