Stop flooding my news with FOX article just because I clicked on ONE FOX article.
After I clicked on ONE FOX article over 25% of the article displayed on my news page started being FOX article. If I wanted to see that much FOX I would go to the FOX site.

Why don't the Notifications link directly to the comment message anymore?
The failure to link directly to a message I made or to another person's reply means that any discussion ends immediately on articles which receive a large number of comments. If an article is a failure and only receives 50 comments, my comment can be found as well as the person replying to me. But on many articles, there might be 1.5k or 5k messages which means I could search for a week and never find them.

Please fact check every news before posting
"This is absolutely fake news. No Indian fighter jets have been shot down as claimed. In fact, it was the Indian Air Force that shot down Pakistani F-16 jets and successfully neutralized multiple Pakistani drones at the border. Spreading such false and misleading information, especially during sensitive times, is highly irresponsible. I urge Yahoo News to fact-check before publishing such baseless articles. If this fake news is not taken down within 24 hours, I will proceed to file a legal complaint for defamation and spreading disinformation against Indian defence forces."

Russian bots report it a lot and mislead your algorithms.
I don't understand why my comment like this is going under moderation:
"It’s important to remember that World War II began when both Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union invaded Poland in September 1939, following the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact—a secret agreement to divide Eastern Europe between them. While earlier agreements like the Munich Agreement of 1938 were serious diplomatic failures, they did not start the war. Only the German-Soviet pact directly led to military invasion.
As for U.S. involvement, the U.S. declared war on Germany after Germany first declared war in December 1941. And during WWII, the U.S. provided significant military…

Most links in Yahoo news digest emails aren't working
I've been reading news by clicking links in news digest emails for years. Starting yesterday, most (like 80-90%) of the links to the articles send me to a page that says "we couldn't find that page so we brought you to Yahoo.com". Strangely, a link here and there will work and actually take me to the article.
I'm using Windows 11 and Firefox. I tried clearing cache and cookies, and that made no difference.1040th ranked -

I am unable to respond to people's replies on several of my comments I made on yahoo news. How is this not possible? Will you fix your sthy commenting system? Several people are complaining about not being able to use it correctly. While others are responding to e.g. one of my comments under a CNN related news article I Initially could access when posting, now there are multiple replies where OTHERS are able to comment while I CANNOT. Wth is going on here? How is that even possible? I am awaiting your reply and a fix to this insanity.

Please fix your site.
Every time I go to your article section and try to respond to an article your site runs very slow it take way too much time to type words (the lag is terrible) sometime the site just outright freezes.

I sometimes wonder if republicans are interfering with your site being as they always badmouth yahoo for leaning left.
Please fix this problem because I is not the first time I have tried to contact you.

Fix all the duplicate news items on page
News items appear repeatedly on news.yahoo.com. Can you fix this. It does not reflect well on Yahoo. Makes it appear like an amateur website.

Fix message boards
Yahoo is horrible, I've signed in a half a dozen times to comment on articles and it still doesn't show me as logged in.
When I do get replies (notifications do not show anymore in little bell) you can't get to the response unless you scroll back through thousands of comments. Yahoo has really gone downhill.1040th ranked -
Fix emailed comment replies so clicking the link in the email actually brings one back to their original comment.
When I make a comment and someone replies to it, I get email notification with a link to respond to the person in the string. The links never work correctly. Instead of bringing me to the comment in the string, it always goes back to the beginning of the comments page and I have to search through thousands of comments to find mine. This needs to be fixed.

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).

Improve this
When I post something to a story then get an reply then click on it it may take me to the story but not the response they made. It used to work that way. It could take all day trying to find my post and reply. Would make for better posting if you could reply to an reply without scrolling through thousands on post.
