Customize the Yahoo! homepage
Have an edit and rearrange function for users to customize the new Yahoo! homepage. Some of what Yahoo! decides to put on the Yahoo! homepage is not what I want to read. Also what sections I want to read are distributed all over the feed. Have a way to personalize the feed would allow me to use it more often

Hire more engineers. If you don't have the money, fire some people from marketing or a few MBAs.
Bugs are increasing. Fixes take forever. You new Yahoo Mail, and elimination of My Yahoo make you no better than MSN, provide no utility beyond Microsoft's built in news feed, and no reason to keep using your product. I can't watch any more adds than I'm plagued with now. I may end up just going back to FM radio.

Allow us to get rid of news articles and subjects we don't want to see
We used to be able to customize our news and now we cannot. I do not want to suffer through endless political news articles but now I cannot change that and have to see what yahoo decides I get to see. On top of you now charging me for email, and constantly being censored in comments, I'm about done with yahoo.

New Homepage is terrible. No Focus. Too much ****!
Now I'm forced to the New Yahoo Home page. It is terrible, just ****! It use to be simple, easy to navigate. This is just like when you messed with the finance page. Just leave the originals alone. You want a new experience, just give a link to a new page for them to try or make as their home page. Simple. Stop making your long time users suffer. Not everything new is the greatest thing.

Yahoo Image Search
Is there a way that I can get rid of the text captions at the bottom of the yahoo search images? The pictures are also much smaller too unfortunately. I've also noticed that the search bar seems to be getting smaller and smaller in every single update too. When I go on the regular yahoo search browser on my android phone. The text captions aren't under the yahoo search images at all. The pictures are also better quality and much bigger too. Is there any way that I can remove the text captions under the yahoo image search?Can you please…

Please stop the moving slides.
On the landing page, moving slides are very bothersome on the eye. It's not really that eye-catching because it moves too quickly before one can read what it says. The best yahoo site is the Japanese yahoo site, where they have the news topics in a stationary list and is really easy to read, like a real newspaper. The second best one is the Australian yahoo site, it's not as obnoxious as the us version. I speak for a lot of people, and I mean a LOT of people.

Yahoo's Sadist Violence
Why are you advertising sadistic violence? Your 'fantasy' football graphics showing decapitated men's heads rolling around as I'm trying to access my email is total unwanted and distasteful. I recently had decided to avoid all of your features, other than email, because of bad decision making like this, and poor presentation.
Oh, and your 'feedback' link on the homepage list of features doesn't work!730th ranked -

Improve UI for using popup translators
I am opening yahoo website from desktop browser. I tried to translate some heading news, I moved cursor to title to select text (I use a popup translator which lets you drag mouse around a text and mark it, then it shows you translation in a popup box) but I couldnt select the text, because cursor icon was always a hand icon and never let me to select a piece of text. there must be a space (even space between the news header or title and the image on its left side, between them you can add a space so…

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.

Your 'Rotating Headlines' are worthless
I just now counted the 'headlines' you forcefeed your viewers. 14 rotating GIFS, and only 3 of them were current news, and 2 were redundant stories! Do you really consider this an improvement?!?
This is why I no longer read your webpage and only use Yahoo for email, which you've messed with also.730th ranked -
Here's an idea!!! Why not show the local weather forecast?
Here's an idea!! Why not show my local weather forecast on yahoo or my yahoo instead of Pottstown PA? I live about 2900 miles from Pottstown and I'm sure they have interesting weather, but I am more intersted in my local forecast. Why not have Yahoo show your local forecast instead of Pottstown PA? No matter how many times I correct the locations for weather, it always returns to Pottstown PA which is irrelevant.
