Where is the mute button?
When you redesigned the comments section, you forgot a few things:
1) the option to mute users! that way we can safely skip having to see troll remarks. Otherwise we have to report them. Do you need that much more work?
2) the option to downvote dumb, harmful, or outright rude comments. I don't think many of them need a smiling emoji and with how hateful the comments usually are, they don't rate a positive response, which us all you're giving us. Which leaves no option but reporting them
So let's get that fixed. Soon if you can please.

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.

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).

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.

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 -
