FIX Email Links to Comments
You NEED to fix your comment links in email. Do a little research, it's all over Reddit and other forums you are losing readers and making commenting less "fun" if you will. When I receive an email in my Yahoo mail stating someone replied to a comment I have made, it gives me a link to "reply to" whoever responded to my original comment. That link takes me to the story and not the comment - in many cases, especially on an article with lots of readers I do not have the time sort through thousands of other comments to…

Do better
Your new layout is ****, very glitchy, and reminds me of AOL in the late 90's. Are you going for the retro internet vibe in a cynical tone? If so, it's working. We get it and remember it. It sucked. So, let's get away from the reminiscing and beck to modern internet practices and platform something that works and doesn't look like my 3 year old designed the layout and functionality. Seriously, do better. This is trash and I won't be partaking much longer if it doesn't improve. If that was your goal, congratulations, high success rate. If not, and…

Fix Comment linking
When receiving a notification of a comment link or reply via yahoo email, upon clicking on the link, it only takes us to the article itself. It no longer takes us to the comment that was replied to. This error can be produced on any device that I use (phone, tablet, laptop). Can you correct the comment linking so that we can easily find our comments and reply or answer replies.

Android News app
what the **** happened with the background not being Black for OLED
displays. this Gray background is a deal breaker. give the option of a
black background just like version 56 and prior. Now that Yahoo no longer
supports version 56.3 I'm going to have to switch to an app that allows
black background. This new layout is horrible go back to version 56 and prior!1040th ranked -

I cannot reply to someone who has replied to my initial comment.
I cannot reply to someone who has replied to my initial comment even though I receive an email with the reply and a blue button to reply specifically to that person. It takes me to the article but I cannot find my original comment or the reply by someone else. I used to do this.

Please tell the people in the Finance group to quit in mass, as they have the Finance seeeion so fouled up I'm not sure it can be repaired.

I often see your articles state at the bottom 'What do you think? Let us know in the comments below'. But you don't have a comment section??

I have been trying for over FOUR MONTHS to get help with YAHOO NEWS comments section.
I am apparently banned from Yahoo News comment section. I believe the remediation algorithm has mistakenly done this. All posts and replies I make are removed in seconds with a comment that it violates policy. How does 'Hello' violate policy? No one can reply on Yahoo HELP and all I get are cut and paste emails telling me to review policies. I have done that many times. I subscribed to paid support and wasted that money to be told that they cannot help me and to contact OpenWeb. I have done this and not gotten a single reply from them…

fix that i'm being blocked automatically at logon.
when i logon i'm always blocked and can't find out why. i ask the open web folks for help to clear it but it may take an hour. i'd like this fixed. i never get any feedback so i can't make corrections or adjustments. it's happening in the yahoo news section and the yahoo main section as well. see if there's something that can be done to fix this. it's very frustrating.

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

Honor the browser settings - autoplay
I have Firefox set to NOT "autoplay audio and video", yet Yahoo News seems to ignore my browser settings.
I DO NOT WANT VIDEOS SUCKING UP MY DATA ALLOTMENT!
Why can't Yahoo honor my browser settings? If I want news videos, I will turn on my 65" TV. Why would I want to watch a video on my 6" phone screen? I even have dual 24" monitors OVER dual 27" monitors on my PC... Again, why would I want to watch a video on my 6" phone screen?
Guess my only option is to boycott Yahoo News on my phone.555th ranked
