Please bring back source filtering and give users more control
I've used Yahoo News feed for years, but removing the “Show Less Like This” option and constantly pushing clickbait and ideologically one-sided sources is driving me away. I want balanced news and the ability to control what I see. If this doesn't change, I’ll stop visiting Yahoo entirely.

Improve the look and function
2 things for the News page - 1. Please set a link to the original source in headlines. 2. Dates would also be nice. Even something like "2 days old", etc. Right now, it's hard to get to the OG source of the stories (ex: Buzzfeed, Wash Post, Newsweek). It's also tedious checking the News page more than once a day because of how stories are not lined up by date. Finally, the page is not really pleasing to the eye. I often just skip Yahoo News and go to other sources because of these issues.

Informing the public about true hardships surviving in todays economy.
As an Uber driver, I would like the public to know exactly how bad Uber, "screws" their drivers in the state of Florida. There are so many "unfair" commissions, trips, & rules & regulations, that hamper drivers' income, & operating costs that the public needs to be aware of. I am sure Florida is NOT the only state that get's treated unfairly & "screwed" by uber.

Bring back the old Health category.
Bring back the old Health category. The new one is either thinly veiled advertising or just blatant advertising. There used to be timely, informative and valuable health information but now it just a gang of carnival barkers with no news.

It's Memorial Day - Why is there NO recognition of Memorial Day in your 'news' today?
At least post one story or headline indicating that TODAY IS MEMORIAL DAY. People should be encouraged to take a minute to acknowledge those who 'gave all'.

Check boxes for read articles
We desperately need a way to remove articles that we have read or have no interest in. Spending precious time scrolling through articles being repeatedly posted by Yahoo is a waste of time and a major headache.
Do us all a favor and let us be more efficient in our pursuit of the news.1040th ranked -

Grammar mistakes and typos on Yahoo news
I just read four random news articles on Yahoo news and three of the four had grammatical errors. One was missing a connecting word in a sentence. The other two had used the wrong word. In one article, the word was literary instead of literally.
Do you all not have editors or even AI that checks the articles? ****, I use the grammar check on Microsoft Word, and it catches almost everything. It is irritating that journalists on Yahoo are apparently not using these tools or even people to proofread their work.
News is getting progressively sloppier. The writing on…

Replies in News
It used to be when you got an email with a reply to a comment in Yahoo News and clicked on the link in the email it would directly to that post. It still happens very rarely and mostly just takes you to the story and you have to scroll through everything to find it which is nearly impossible if your comment was a reply to a reply as too cumbersome. Can we have the direct path back please.

Stop using artificial intelligence to caption stock photographs.
The AI-generated captions are so generic they are of little value. Maybe they are useful for blind users, but from what I've seen they are frequently incorrect or simply banal descriptions. Please employ real humans if you think you must provide captions for news article photos (which, by the way, are often not useful in any way other than to clutter the pages with color).

Stop with the Kardashian coverage
Seriously. It is way past time to rid ourselves of the Kardashians under celebrity news or any other news. For years, yahoo has unreasonably fawned over them. Even now, though they have overstayed their celebrity "influence", I scroll through the news feed on my yahoo home page and there are at least 2 articles regarding them. Please. STOP. No more Kardashians. Stop reporting about them. Stop reposting stories about them. Make them go away. Please.
