Do you know that many of Yahoo features especially comments don't work in the Firefox browser
Many features will not in the Firefox browser. Also when I get an email about a comment and try to reply to it, it is blocked because it doesn't go to a https website meaning your comments are probably vulnerable to hackers.

Diversity of news sources such as ITN, WION, DW, OANN, Revolver, etc.
It is folly to accept information presented by news organizations that rely heavily on corporate sponsorship. As a young person I recall 3 networks and the likes of Walter Cronkite, Mike Wallace, David Brinkley, et. al. The horror of the Vietnam conflict was presented every evening perhaps for shock effect but not for the sake of shock. Now, with a desensitized populace by way of cultural evolution, the network evening news is nothing more than puff pieces, hyperbolic opinion veiled as news with the obligatory "feel good" story at the end that keeps interrupting the pharmaceutical infomercial. I'd like to…

Your notifications regarding comments on news articles are worthless. You click on notifications but can't read a reply someone has made.
Go back to getting an email when someone liked or replied to a comment you made on a news article, so you can see what the reply was. The current notification system is worthless.

Allow us to multiple messages at once so that patterns of harassment abuse can be seen by moderators
Reporting posts for things like repetitive harassment posting doesn't seem to work, because by reporting individual messages, moderators cant see the patterns.
There is one poster in particular who is using mutliple nicknames to repeat the same harassment on an article, and tehey've made appx. 100 posts of this harassment, but all reporting individual posts did was close down one nickname and let them transfer to another nickname to repeat the same harassment posts. We should have a way to provide examples of this type of harassment to the moderation staff so that they can block IP addresses of these…

Why Egypt's local Arabic profile is not working any more as usual when I log out from Yahoo mail. Egypt is not listed in the preferences?

Expanding use of Advertisement Tag
I am relatively new to Yahoo News and use it frequently now that I am retired. The convention of marking items as advertisement is appreciated since it lets me triage effectively.
It would be even better if you added this tag to news items that tell you nothing more when you click on them except the subscription rate if you want to learn more, e.g., most Baron headlines. These are particularly annoying.
Thanks for listening!

Marsha, Marsha, Marsha.......TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP!!
TRUMP has been THE MAIN topic of conversation for MOST ALL of the MEDIA since he was voted in as POTUS almost 8 years ago now. I mean if he isn't a concern or a threat to our country, now remember he was the Commander in Chief for 4 years and I don't recall any DEVESTATING happenings...other than the "China Virus". Yet again, if he is such a concern or threat to our livelihood, why can none of you stop talking about him for more than 2 minutes.....?
Out of 90 plus stories, 35+ are about Trump.....I'd say he is…1040th ranked -
Bugs me
The censoring is annoying especially when you can't figure out the reason/can't fix it but it's fun to add a gif & I can't do that anymore. The page is misaligned no matter what brower I use. The frames are all over the place. Even here there's something on top of where I'm typing. You guys have my email. Let me know what to do if anything. It's a hoot adding those things!

Can't post links in comments
Are all links in commenters post not allowed?
There is a great comic who does great videos and is not vulgar. But for some reason, I can not post his YouTube video URL. Had to make it all text base.
He is a very funny comic and people should watch him.

Please include the state when posting articles from local newspapers that don't mention it.
Many articles on Yahoo are from localized newspapers. As such, they mention the city/town and maybe a county of a news event but NOT the state. It would be nice to know where an event took place w/o extensive searching.

Why does the reply to comment function jump to the top of the feed? This must be an easy bug to fix.
The reply function from email seems to work just fine. But then it instantly jumps to the top of the feed, and we have to sift through hundreds of comments to respond. It has to be a simple fix. Please, we want follow up conversation.

Restore e-mail notifications for replies and likes on comments posted regarding news articles.
I would like to register my displeasure at Yahoo's elimination of e-mail notifications for replies and likes to comments on news articles. I thought the purpose of this was to encourage conversation. Now it is almost impossible to engage in discussion, particularly when multiple articles are involved, and when some replies arrive hours later. My only option seems to be to ignore Yahoo news, and use Yahoo solely for e-mail - for which I will be seeking an alternative: Gmail, Outlook, etc.
