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.

Please allow us to turn off blatantly inflammatory news feeds (E.G. The Telegraph, The Cool Down")

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.

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…

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.723rd 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.

Balanced Presentation of News Stories
Please present a balanced selection of news stories in the Home Page feed. The vast majority of stories are Anti- Trump, Anti-Republican, Pro Liberals, Void of features on the current administrations' accomplishments.
I get that Yahoo is a liberal leaning organization, how about some balance to let readers walk away better informed to make their own decisions on issues?
Thank you!

Menu items in the same order.
I much prefer the old Mail format. The menu selections available with the three dots are in different orders in each sub heading. I deal primarily with Mail, Spam, and Trash. While there are unique items in each selection, there are also menu items common to all selections. Having the common items in the same order and always at the top, followed by the unique items, would make selecting the desired option easier and quicker.

Return to Classic Yahoo Homepage for my computer
I want the Classic Yahoo Homepage for my computer. I have it as my start-up page, and I do not like the newer version of the Homepage. I am requesting a return to the previous Classic Yahoo Homepage, and I do not want to keep the current 'newer' version of it.
Please let me know when it is done. If not, I will decide to have another Homepage from another provider.
Thank you for your attention to this and I look forward to returning to my favorite Homepage version.
Best,

Comments Being Rejected
With respect to making comments on articles, I appreciate your inclusion of the appeal feature, because I use it and my comment often gets reinstated. That indicates to me that your censorship is overzealous and the program needs to be re-evaluated to allow more comments to post. For example, if I'm talking about **** Cheney, or the movie Queer, those words shouldn't cause my comment to be rejected. **** Cheney was our Vice President, and Hollywood made a movie called Queer. I should be able to talk about them without being censored. Additionally, on the off chance that my appeal…

You should try printing unbiased news instead of pro liberal/ democrat/ misinformation, scare tacks etc.

This is Yahoo now? Days old stories and scrolling and scrolling and scrolling?? Hope it doesn't stay this way or there's no point.
I feel this new format is politically motivated and not at all appreciated. This may be my end to Yahoo.
