Your bots are broken
My comment was rejected as "going against your terms of service" for pointing out that unemployment reached 13% and inflation 8% in 2020. Literally that was the entire content of my post. This is slimy and reeks of political interference. There was no bannable language in my short post and you can fact check it to see it was correct. There is something wrong with your automatic moderation. I filed an appeal and the appeal was rejected. I edited the statistic into another post in the same thread, the edit - even though it contained literally the same information -…

Yahoo censors need independent oversight
Many commenters have noted biased censorship by Yahoo based on their so-called community guidelines. Yet today Yahoo published an article from The New Republic with the headline
"Idiot Trump Accidentally Debunks Himself at Pennsylvania Rally". Yep, clearly a hit piece employing language conservative commentors would be banished for. Specifically, the term idiot in the headline. Yahoo users have no recourse and no path of appeal. Yahoo needs oversight due to their clearly biased treatment of commenters and their effective muzzling of free speech1040th ranked -
periodic review of moderators for bias.
lease review your moderators in the comments sections periodically. There have been a few that have censored posts that do not violate any of Yahoo's guidelines,but are by particular users who are identifiably democrats. There have been no valid reasons for censoring these posts, so the only reason I can see is a biased moderator,

What is this "Firefox can't open this page, except on a new window," or whatever it is said. It won't allow comments.
Reinstall comments. I don't understand what happened or why.

Stop telling us you're not censoring us while actively censoring us with an out of control LLM
Stop telling us you're not censoring us while actively censoring us with an out of control LLM. I know hardly anyone actually works at this shell of a company so can you maybe turn off the robots

Expand categories to make it easier to report problems
I am getting replies to posts, but when I try to view them I am taken to a completely unrelated page.
Clearly others can see my posts; why can't I?743rd ranked -
Explain why you reject links to YOUR OWN ARTICLES in a reply to another post, when no obscenity, insult or anything against ToS was posted
Explain why you reject links to YOUR OWN ARTICLES in a reply to another post, when no obscenity, insult or anything against ToS was posted. You owe it to your readers. If you have changed standards and no longer allow Yahoo links, let people KNOW. So close to leaving Yahoo

Highlight reject errors
It sometimes happens that a comment is initially allowed but later rejected, sometimes minutes after it has been posted. I would like to suggest that, if possible, the software highlight the offending word or phrase. If it can detect something is wrong, surely it can point it out as well. It is annoying to find a comment rejected when you look in on it later on.

Are you still reporting CURRENT news? Nothing changes after 6 hours. Maybe MSN for me.
I asked the same question about a year ago. Things improved after a short while but of late you have nothing new to say. You move the same stories around on the page. In addition, whoever edits your news page doesn't remove articles that are old and incorrect, even when there is an update reported on the same page at the same time. If you are going to do news then DO IT. If you can't do it then don't make your inability to report the news so obvious. Just get out of the news business completely. I've read Yahoo…

When I click on a news article and it says somone doesnt look the same as the used too. PLease include photos.
Your news articles do not include photos or videos in 90% on the articles that the title says someone looks different or did something in a video. I hate reading the article and then trying to search for the photo or video in question.

not being biased would be a good start
All news is news, not news based on this platform's agenda. Sad we live in a country where common sense or sense at all and personal responsibility are things of the past. Sad people would rather live off the backs of the people that work hard and pay taxes, so they can collect a check top be lazy.
