Hi, please share your suggestions, we are listening

← Yahoo Homepage

The new homepage stinks.

First you change the homepage on my phone. Now you change it on my computer. Stop trying to be avant-garde. You're just hurting your company. I implore you to change the homepage back. I always used Yahoo as my search engine. If I had free time, I would just sit and mindlessly browse the news. Now I can't do that. I guess, for now, I'm switching to Google. At least they care enough about their consumers to keep the same homepage. Also, if you'll notice, I've already changed my email provider to gmail. I hope you're prepared to lost a lot of money.

    Your yahoo now smells to high heaven!

  • Januck commented  ·   ·  Report

    I've been using Yahoo as my homepage since I first starting using the internet close to 20 years ago and still use my original email. Yahoo changed the sports format a few years ago and I did not like how scores were displayed but couldn't go back to the original format so I switched to looking up scores on ESPN. Now you've changed the Home Page format and it is horrible. Why would I want to click twice to read a story. I never thought I would change my Home Page from Yahoo to anything else but unless there is the option to go back to the original format, then it will be time for me, like many others, who will find a different source to get information. Thank you.

    As most of the posters below have espoused, your new format is atrocious. Who ever came up with this garage should be fired. You had one of THE best formats. Now it is one of the worst.

    The font is TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SMALL!

    Shame on Yahoo for such total lack of professionalism. **** Yahoo!

    Typical *****-led, Godless liberalism running AMOK.

    Oh well.

    I agree. I might be able to deal with the new cumbersome news feed. However, I always enjoyed Yahoo! comments. Yahoo! had a fairly unique product in that regard. I like getting notifications when others replied or thumb up a comment. Getting a notification that linked back to the comment so I could read replies made Yahoo! entertaining. That seems to no longer exist. I understand Yahoo! is having financial trouble and is actually for sale, but removing a feature that many have enjoyed for years doesn't seem like a good move. I also understand that Yahoo! can't compete with other social media, like Facebook and Twitter. It's sad. I've been using Yahoo! for going on twenty years. Seems like they'd want people like me clicking on their content, going back and forth to comment and reply on content. Clicks are what make money, so that I don't understand that part. The new interface is cumbersome. You click a link to get an article and then if you want to read the article you click again and you're off site. Seems weird. The old interface embedded more content in Yahoo! and allowed a lot more interaction for Yahoo! users. Seems like they'd want to keep people on site and clicking on their content. Oh well. I gave up on Yahoo! chat and messenger years ago. I give up on Yahoo! email too. I kept Yahoo! as my homepage because I like reading news and hearing what other Yahoo! users had to say about it. I think the quality of comments and replies is much better on Yahoo! than other sites. I have trolled a bit and been trolled, but that's part of the fun. We old school users could probably help Yahoo! profit in the future. But if this is it now. We're gone. I don't Twitter or Facebook. Maybe I should. I use google to search and email. Maybe I should check out there news feed. Too bad.

    I don't know what more I can add to this lunacy. Who's running Yahoo? Google?

  • Doug commented  ·   ·  Report

    There was a story on this morning news cast (4/11/16) that Yahoo is on the chopping block and up for sale.

    Gee, I can't imagine why!!! (PURE SARCASM)

    Let's hope that whichever company buys it they see the wisdom of what Yahoo used to be and brings the old format back. Till then, I'm elsewhere and I strongly encourage everyone else to do the same. If they have no readers they will have no advertising dollars. Hit them in the pocketbook, it's the only thing they understand.

    I hate that you took away the My Comment section, where you could see reactions to your comments and replies to your comments. Please bring it back, it was the main reason I have made Yahoo my search engine for the last 10 years.

  • Eric Smith commented  ·   ·  Report

    You just had to go and "fix" with what wasn't broke, didn't you? No comment section on most articles anymore. Notification of thumbs up and replies in my e-mail, but when I click on it, it takes me to the article and doesn't show any comments or thumbs up/relies to what I posted. Am I supposed to surf through hundreds of post to find it!?

    Sometimes, I think you geeks just lay awake at night figuring out ways to F*** things up.

    Guess I'm not the only one who hates the homepage and the loss of the comment section on Yahoo.com. If this is so, then why aren't the folks @ Yahoo.com listening to the public?

  • Robert Barney II commented  ·   ·  Report

    The new page sucks so much that I will not be using it any more, and will only be using Yahoo for e-mail.

  • Janie commented  ·   ·  Report

    I agree with everyone on this... your new homepage is so awful. Please change it back already.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Just when I thought the site couldn't get any worse, it does. I left google when they changed their home page, but now it doesn't seem so bad. No comics, no new dear abby, no easy to find news stories, unable to sort comment. Really no reason to stay here any more.

  • Steve Wofford commented  ·   ·  Report

    Your new homepage absolutely sux. I use to be able to go to the news click on Reuters News service or the AP, can't do that anymore. Yahoo was trying to fix something that wasn't broke. Whoever came up with this format should be fired, but then in today's society there's no accountability so I don't expect this person to be fired or Yahoo to change back to the old format. Yahoo doesn't care so why should people stay with Yahoo. I was with AOL for a very long time until they changed their format and I left them and I can very well leave Yahoo too.

  • David Hussey commented  ·   ·  Report

    I am troubled by the introduction of the new format, for without warning Yahoo has removed and thereby threaten the free flow of ideas, the ability for people to exchange thoughts, opinions, dreams, recipes, greetings, and rebuttals. Perhaps Yahoo could argue that ideas threaten other ideas; if an individual or group of individuals in power are hostile the concept of ‘the free flow of ideas’, perhaps they will do just about anything to censor an ideal. No, Yahoo you have made a grave error, for though it may take time, a blocked river will eventually find another route to the sea, and maybe cost you a lot of business.
    Bring back the old format before it is too late.
