I'll be leaving after decades of having My Yahoo as my start page and referring to it multiple times a day to look for My Page updates. Sadly...I have already set up an alternate start page from another company that has all my bookmarks stored, but it is not as robust content-wise as what I am used to. It will be Goodbye Yahoo once my My Yahoo disappears. :-(

leave my yahoo alone. It is exactly what i want from content to background color. Yahoo is known for making bad business decisions in the past. Do not continue the trend

I hve been using this page and existing configuration since the Internet was jsut a fad - This is a definite step backwords. NOW, that being said, if your, our should I say, OUR homepage, can be customized to the extent that WE decide what is important ( you obviosly can't know what we think is important), and we can mimic what we have been accustomed to for SOOOOO many years, I would be ok. Here's my needs, Your Weather widget, MyPortfolio widget, and Dark Mode -
BTW, I've already. created my new homepage in Protopage. If Yahoo would supply their Weather and My Portfolio widgets, I would leave and never look back

Yahoo's finance section stinks. A short ticker is great. Having a quick summary of the mail is great. Having selectable sections of targeted news is great. You can force ads onto people and get away with it too. So why in the world would you get rid of that??? Yahoo apparently does not want my web traffic.

I will also leave Yahoo completely if you remove the My Yahoo page. Seems like you don't really care.

Having read other comments posted here, all I can do is agree with what others are saying.
MyYahoo has been my go-to home page since the 20th century, if you take it away I will likely move on from Yahoo.

My Yahoo has been my homepage for over 20 years. I don't know where else I can get the same information set up on one page, especially the schedules of all the sports teams I follow all in one place. If that sports scoreboard section and the portfolio section go away, I'll no longer have a reason to use Yahoo. I can get all those click bate headlines somewhere else.

I agree with the comments. I will no longer use yahoo at all when the my yahoo changes. I've been user for at least 20 years. I've always felt out of touch without having a gmail account. I guess now I have a reason to switch.

I agree with other commenters. Get rid of My Yahoo and I will not be visiting Yahoo anymore. I have loved having a customized page with my e-mail visible. If this goes away, Yahoo is pretty useless to me. Please don't change it.

The only reason I use My Yahoo as my homepage is because I can personalize it. Once that changes, I'll have no reason to use Yahoo at all.

I only use yahoo because of My Yahoo, the new version doesn't show me anything I'm interested in, it's all the stupid propaganda that I do not want to see. I love my yahoo because it allows me to customize it the way I want. If you want a subscription for this as long as it's not a stupid price, I'll pay it. You get rid of My Yahoo, i'm gone!!!

Please don't get rid of my.yahoo It has been my homepage for 20+ years and I love that it is fully customizable and have taken advantage of that feature many times over the years.
If you want an annual subscription fee for my.yahoo, then by all means do so and many people will pay.
Get rid of my.yahoo and you will lose customers and page views by the billions. I've tried the 'new' yahoo.com and it isn't reaching me. If you drop my.yahoo homepage I will very likely not be coming back and will find another news aggregator site as my new homepage.
Thank you for your consideration

Do you want a monthly fee? If that’s it, why not say so? Why kill something that means so much to so many? What on earth is driving this decision? The people who use and love my.yahoo do not want a generic page feeding them **** they don’t want to see. Please leave it as it is!!

I'm sure this is a bean counters decision. In the long run it will cost them users. The new generic garbage page aimed at users with the attention span of a brick is not an "Improvement"
I will also be looking elsewhere if this is the best Yahoo can do.

Totally Agree! My Yahoo is my homepage, and has been for many years because I can customize content to what I want. Not what Yahoo "thinks" I want. Leave it Alone!!

My Yahoo is my homepage, my portal, my news aggregate site, the first thing I look at in the morning. It is customized exactly the way I want it. Because of vision and cognitive issues I need it. If you take it away from me, I will probably forget about Yahoo after a few weeks. Please don't take it away from me.

My Yahoo is the only reason I ever visit *.yahoo.com. I like the stock/news customizations. Without that there is no point in going to the main yahoo.com page.

I agree that I do not want my My Yahoo page removed. I have a significant number of Bookmarks saved and organized. It is also set up the way that I want my information presented to me.
If and when the My Yahoo page is removed, please provide instructions to export Bookmarks and how to insert them in to the new Homepage.
