Annoying Video Popup
While scrolling down a news article, new in the past month you popup a video on the lower right. The video never plays right, freezes or refuses to play at all. The video player covers the text of the article I came to read, making it unreadable. If I close the video to read it, the video pops up again the moment I scroll down. I did not come to Yahoo News to watch videos, but I will leave as a result of them.

The news articles that you've selected are clearly from biased sources. I'll check occasionally to see if you've corrected this.

video popup lower right corner
The news video popup in the lower right corner does not stay closed. It reopens with each new scroll down. No means no! Closed means stay closed. Reopening is harassment. This is important because on a zoomed browser screen, to 125%, your video blocks the text content overlaying it. Desktop, windows, brave browser.

Limit posters to 100 posts per month.
Internet trolls are a problem. I just had an interaction with a person that had 27000 posts. He was clearly online to "stir the pot". Limiting the number of posts per day, per week, or per month, would allow free speech but help to mitigate the troll issue.

Please, please, please stop using the mug shot of Trump. It does nothing but embolden him and especially his cult followers.
Please, please, please stop using the mug shot of Trump. It has become a political ad and just makes him more money. It does nothing but embolden him and especially his cult followers who we probably should fear.

Stop allowing racist articles to be reshared on your platform.
I think someone should proof read the articles you repost. You're allowing racist people to get their agenda on your website and in turn are promoting racism. Please review the article shared from The Root: "New Development In Case of Black Trucker Arrested in Dubai for Raising Her Voice"
https://www.yahoo.com/news/development-case-black-trucker-arrested-055000879.htmlThe author refers to America as AmeriKKKa. That's infuriating, racist, and disrespectful of our country.

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.

Fix the state referenced in the transgender child article summary
The summary on the main yahoo.com news page says "Minnesota" is attempting to ban gender affirming care which is incorrect. The article text correctly references "Missouri" as the state attempting to ban gender affirming care. Minnesota and Missouri are different states.
Minnesota is doing the opposite making sure that gender affirming care is available for all from medical providers.
This is the article with the incorrect summary.

repetitive articles on newspage.
repeating the same articles over and over on the news page doesn't do anything to make this section any better. It only irritates one who has to scroll the page to find a new article. Kinda like me doing thissssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. Only makes it seem like more

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…

Allow options to customize the page.
I hate the big "360 Perspective" box that takes up space at the top right. Also, it w/b nice to add the same kind of extension Google News has - called "Good News" to disable seeing some topics. The page is not pleasing to the eye.

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?
