"Chess in the USSR/Chess in Russia" stopped publication in 1999.
"64" was still published in 2015, but its website seems to be abandoned.
Chess Bulletin stopped publication in 1990.
Those were the three I followed in the 70s.

I'm wondering if chess bulletin is online somewhere
THat is edgar allen Poe.( i think)
I think chess interest in Russia is pretty normal now, not really special like it used to be. Look at the top players... you have Americans, Indians, eastern europeans, French, Asian, and just a few Russians... despite the huge size of the Russian population.
The Russian population size is not even huge anymore.

The Russian chess magazine 64 Шахматное обозрение seems to be still going strong. The fourth issue this year has Karjakin on the cover, and presumably reports on his victory in the Candidates tournament in Moscow in March and April.
146 million is less than Nigeria and Bangladesh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_population
Russian Federation has a serious demografic problem to solve, if they can. If not, they go the way Europe is heading now.

Here's an article with Ireland-based CM Tim Harding reminiscing about Shakhmatny Bulletin:
