I don't like the new news format that came in about a week ago (2/15/24)

You literally have people posting insanely offensive things, and you've taken away the option to dislike a comment. One user posted about "putting a cap" in other users, and of course it only shows likes, since you stopped counting the dislikes. You still have a thumbs down button, but it has not effect. What a terrible change.

You have ruined the Yahoo comments section. Whoever thought this new format was an improvement is delusional. It's ****! Thanks for nothing, moron!

What has happened to Yahoo News Page? Just one story is in the line up box and that’s all. Also you have maybe only two choices of newsfeed. Please fix this problem! Also for several days my Yahoo News Page continuously crashes then re downloads. What is going on with Yahoo?

Why can't readers "mute" commenters? I don't want to report anyone, I just don't want to see their comments. Why has this feature been removed?

I have to open the Yahoo mail weather & search every day for a variety of reasons. It used to open with a single click which saved time and so easy. This just changed this week. Now I have figure out a way to locate it every day. I never thought this would happen and I don't know why but it would be so nice to have it back on its logo on my home page. Thank you.

OpenWeb has been rated the worst-ever comment platform in internet history since its inception, yet the company somehow managed to make it even worse with its new version. NO ONE likes it! On every article, without fail, the top comment is of people complaining about it. What's good about it: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!! What's bad about: EVERYTHING!!! The text is too small on the website. Cannot create paragraphs (line breaks), so you're looking at a WALL OF TEXT, which is insufferable. Taking away emojis and GIFs is a bad thing. It was fun using them and seeing others use them in a fun, joking manner. The new reactions are a jumbled mess: You can't tell which reaction has the most or least clicks. The ABSURDLY AGGRESSIVE AI moderation is beyond out of control!!! Having benign comments removed is appalling! Having to scroll through countless removed comments to find an actual comment is not only frustrating, but it suppresses conversation. No one wants to look at hundreds of notices of "This comment has been removed..." The Yahoo Community (us users) is sick and tired of OpenWeb! The new comment platform is literally making us NOT want to come on Yahoo anymore for our news' reading and comment activities. The new version does NOT promote a sense of community in the way that it wants (a community of engagement): It created a HATER community against it. Get rid of it NOW before all of us Yahooers leave Yahoo forever!

I've received 5+ email notification spread out over several hours that the same comment has been removed. I use to defend Yahoo when other commenters complained but no more. I received another email notification while I was typing this. Your comment system is terrible.

# The Clash of Eternal Power: Yeshua vs Genghis Khan
## A 10-Minute Superhero Scenario---
## **The Combatants**
**YESHUA**
- **All-Knowing**: Perfect awareness of all events, past, present, and future
- **Healing**: Can instantly restore any damage to himself or others
- **Resurrection**: Can bring himself or others back from death
- **All-Powerful**: Possesses virtually unlimited supernatural abilities
- **Flight**: Moves freely through the air**GENGHIS KHAN**
- **Super Strength**: Capable of lifting massive structures and throwing them
- **Advanced Tactical Mind**: Unparalleled strategic and combat instincts
- **Flight Capability**: Enhanced mobility through the air
- **Warrior's Expertise**: Centuries of accumulated combat knowledge
- **Legendary Durability**: Can withstand enormous punishment
- **Army Tactics**: Ability to coordinate devastating group attacks---
## **Minute-by-Minute Breakdown**
### **MINUTE 1: THE ENCOUNTER**
A metropolitan skyline trembles as two figures ascend above the downtown district. Yeshua rises calmly, radiating an ethereal golden light. Genghis Khan launches upward with explosive force, his presence commanding and terrible.They lock eyes across 500 meters of urban airspace.
**Advantage: Psychological (Neutral)** — Both radiate absolute confidence.
---
### **MINUTE 2: INITIAL ASSAULT**
Genghis Khan strikes first, hurling a 40-story building section like a discus. The projectile spirals toward Yeshua at supersonic speed.Yeshua simply *knows* it's coming. He gestures, and the debris halts mid-air, gently dissolving into harmless particles of light that scatter like snow.
Khan charges forward, fists raised for melee combat.
**Critical Moment**: As Khan approaches, Yeshua's all-knowing ability reveals Khan's every move before he executes it. Yet Yeshua doesn't immediately counter-attack—he simply *exists* in his space, immovable as a mountain.
---
### **MINUTE 3: KHAN'S SUSTAINED ASSAULT**
Genghis Khan demonstrates his legendary durability and strength, unleashing a relentless barrage:
- Throws cars and light poles with perfect accuracy
- Attempts simultaneous aerial maneuvers to trap Yeshua
- Combines strength with tactical genius, trying to force Yeshua into geometric disadvantagesEvery attack dissolves or stops.
**Critical Issue for Khan**: He's exhausting himself against an opponent who doesn't tire. Each blow that connects with Yeshua does nothing—no impact, no ***********, as if striking solid water.
---
### **MINUTE 4: KHAN'S DESPERATION**
Realizing direct assaults are failing, Khan adapts with tactical brilliance. He:
- Creates chaos across multiple city blocks to divide Yeshua's attention
- Targets civilians to force Yeshua into rescue operations
- Attempts to destroy the city's structural integrity, reasoning that Yeshua's compassion might be exploitedYeshua responds by simply *willing* the danger away. Falling buildings stabilize. Civilians are enveloped in protective fields. No harm occurs.
**The Turning Point**: Genghis Khan understands, for the first time in his existence, that he's fighting an opponent operating on a completely different level of reality.
---
### **MINUTE 5: STANDOFF**
Khan hovers at a distance, breathing heavily, his superhuman body glistening with exertion.Yeshua remains perfectly calm, unblemished, untouched.
Khan attempts psychological warfare, channeling his legendary charisma and tactical mind, boasting of his conquests and dominion. His voice carries supernatural weight—a warrior who conquered half the world.
Yeshua listens with infinite compassion.
---
### **MINUTE 6: THE DECISION POINT**
This is the crucial 60 seconds.Yeshua possesses the ability to end this instantly. He could:
- Freeze Khan permanently
- Erase him from existence
- Return him to infancy
- Seal him in an inescapable dimension
- Simply will him unconsciousInstead, Yeshua speaks, his voice carrying the weight of eternity: "You've conquered empires. I'm not here to conquer you. I'm here to show you something your power never could: that strength without wisdom destroys itself."
---
### **MINUTE 7: KHAN'S CRITICAL CHOICE**
Genghis Khan, for perhaps the only moment in existence, faces something he cannot overcome through force.He has three options:
1. **Continue fighting** (futile)
2. **Attempt escape** (impossible with an all-knowing opponent)
3. **Yield and learn** (against every fiber of his warrior nature)Khan launches one final, desperate assault—perhaps not to win, but to maintain his dignity.
---
### **MINUTE 8: THE CONCLUSION APPROACHES**
Yeshua doesn't fight back in a conventional sense. Instead, he reveals knowledge to Khan—showing him the full consequences of his actions across history, the suffering he caused, the impact of his choices rippling through time.It's not torture. It's enlightenment.
Khan's assault slows. His fists drop.

### **MINUTE 9: TRANSFORMATION**
In perhaps the only moment where Y -

Can't find the notifications in the comment section anymore, have been trying to reach out to your company to ask questions but apparently people who don't pay you monthly aren't entitled to any customer service, clearly you don't give a **** about your free users which is your prerogative but I'm going to be really bummed out when I have to move to a different service, I'm very used to yours.. please tell me where I can find the **** notifications?! I see the bell at the very top that tells me when new stories have dropped but doesn't include anything about interactions with my comments. Seriously, getting a hold of you is a nightmare.. I've emailed a dozen emails and nothing gets through, you must be the very definition of two big to fail with a business model like this. I don't know if you're trying to bully us into your paid service but you're driving me far away. Please help me find my notifications!

Your new comments format is AWFUL. PLEASE go back to the old way. If you can like - you should be able to dislike. I don't wish to communicate by emoji - I'm not five years old.
