The new format sucks!!!!!! If I can't switch back I will find a new homepage.
Allow the customers to switch back. There is not one post here or on the net that says that someone likes the new format
Thank you for the feedback! We do have an option to revert back to the previous version. At the top of the page you should see a purple banner. Within that banner you would need to click on "Old Version" or you'll see an option saying return to yahoo.com. For additional support please visit help.yahoo.com

Scam company called "Oviicha"
You've been running an add from a company called "Oviicha" for and expandable privacy fence. I bought their fence and they took my money and never sent me anything, Their email contact info on their website doesn't work. They are crooks. Not sure how you screen your advertisers, but would be great if you could expose their fraud.
Hello, I’m sorry to hear that! We are unable to assist with any product order issues or returns. You would need to contact that company directly for further assistance with a product purchase as Yahoo is not affiliated with those Ads.
Thank you!

Stories that are MONTHS OBSOLETE!!!!!!!
Your algorithms are COMPLETELY OBSOLETE!!!!! You're posting stories IN MARCH about games to be played in the NFL season? You are so lazy that you can't even look at your own front page and think 'ooops - we need to fix that'. Here is my suggestion - GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER and at least TRY to not be so pathetic.

Malware ads on Yahoo homepage
Please do a better job of screening ads for Yahoo homepage. I clicked on an ad on your homepage that immediately locked up my computer with an audio voice telling me to call their virus hotline and do not restart my computer. It was flashing lights and beeping like crazy at me but I restarted the computer to make it stop. The ad was text on the homepage inserted between other story headlines. I am now forced to activate my ad blocker on your homepage to prevent further corruption to my system. Thank you.
We regret hearing that. Could you please reach out to us at help.yahoo.com so that we may look into it?

The comments section of Yahoo news stories is completely over run by fake accounts posting to sway public opinion about topics.
Yahoo News story comments section is absolutely saturated with paid for fake accounts that were paid for by certain political and governmental groups to over run the comments section with specific rebuttals to stories in an attempt to sway public opinion and to spoof consensus about topics. Yahoo does nothing to stop this and it has been going on for years. This is flagrant abuse of the system and to you as the viewer and Yahoo needs to grow a ethical and moral backbone and take measures to stop these political/governmental/interest groups from doing this.
To report a comment simply click on the menu button(the 3 dots) from the top right side corner of a review and select the “Report Abuse” option.

Removing the ability to view your posts was a terrible idea.
Allow Yahoo commentators to access their comments. Changing that feature was a terrible, unpopular idea
We are unable to replicate your issue. Please try clearing the cookies, cache, history, and footprints in your browser. After that, please sign in again with the same username you commented before. Go to a news article and post a comment, then click on the icon located next to your name.
