Please allow us to turn off blatantly inflammatory news feeds (E.G. The Telegraph, The Cool Down")
Some of the news feeds you use are blatantly inflammatory, like The telegraph and The Cool Down. Please allow us to turn off such obvious disinformation.

End the partnership with Openweb
Your partnership with OpenWeb has led to the overcorrection in censorship of speech on the public forums you have in your comment section. "Moderating hate speech" has created a toxic environment where even the most basic comment is rejected. You can't even use direct quotes in the articles because they are deemed hate speech. Below are 4 of my own examples that have been rejected due to OpenWebs AI censors in the last week.

Let us block / ignore news sources we don't want to see!
We used to be able to at least partially block news sources we didn't like and then you took that feature away. Now the homepage is full of bogus sources no one with a brain can trust. Let me ignore them again!

format
This new format is unacceptable! The primary reason I started using Yahoo for my news page years ago, was that I could choose my own RSS feeds for my sources and arrange them as I wished. I do NOT want an algorithm making that choice. Your attempts to decide for me from a virtually infinite set of choices based on statistical analysis, always with an eye on the financially advantages for Yahoo, is an endless game of frustration for me. If I can no longer make my own choices then I will have no option but to leave Yahoo for…

Poor Homepage
I strongly dislike the new homepage format. I am now beginning a search to find something other than Yahoo. The layout is ridiculous and cluttered. Does not have any of the info that I like.

Did someone make an HTML mistake? "My Yahoo" now goes ONLY to yahoo.com
Click on "my Yahoo"... nope. Yahoo.com
Try again... nope
Somebody, in your new page transition team has redirected all "my yahoo" requests to your main page.
This will not go over well

Where is the RSS capability in the "new" yahoo? The new format will result in users fleeing.
As a consultant in Customer Experience, your customer base uses Yahoo for two things:
1) Free email service
2) RSS feeds.
They do this, you get ad revenue.
In this new format, it appears that you have destroyed one of those two pillars. And Yahoo's email service (dated and featureless as it is) is insufficient to keep your base.
No one needs the search algorithm in an AI world.
Without RSS feeds you will any lose loyalty you still have.
As Venture capitalists (Appolo Global, right?) you should know this. and if you don't then your $5Billion acquisition may go…437th ranked -

I want my old "My Yahoo" page back. I can't customize the new page with my preferred news feeds. I don't care about sports and leisure.
If you HAVE to have the new layout design, I should be able to select the types of feeds I want on the new layout. I DON'T CARE about sports or celebrities or leisure activities or any of that sort of garbage. I wanted the science and investing activities and my horoscope (mostly for a laugh) on my home page for a reason. Now it's all buried in a bunch of junk that I couldn't give two s#!ts about.

Yahoo removed stopping Publishers we don't want. My "NEWS" IS HALF ENTERTAINMENT GOSSIP! uhg!
We used to be able to pick the weight of publishers we want/don't want. And on top of that I scrolled down and half my so called "NEWS" is gossip form entertainment. I RARELY read entertainment "news" except for what shows are cancelled or not. I DON'T care who married who or who took a vacation and where.

New webpage is a Nightmare!
Why are you trying to remake something that is not broken. The new webpage is cluttered with a whole bunch of stuff I do not want to see. Yet you are trying to tell me that this is better and shows me more of what I want. NO, it is exactly the opposite. Just leave My Yahoo alone.

Please get rid of the feed from The Telegraph.
Please give us back the ability to remove certain 'news' sources from our feeds, or just get rid of The Telegraph. It's nothing but right-wing propaganda from a different country that insists on commenting on our politics.

Fix format.
Your new format is horrible. I may need to switch, maybe google news, which is also poorly formatted, but not as bad as your new format.

Novel idea. how about entertaining both sides of an issue.
Your heavy-handed skew of all replies and news in general is laughable at best. dangerous and short sighted. Section heading Yahoo news should be changed to "yahoo opinions with zero logical support"

Do not like the new format - please go back! I am not interested in the catagories you have preset up. Where is World News?
I think you messed up a good layout. I am seeing things in your catagory headers I have no interest in and cannot find things I am. Where is ACTUAL NEWS?
