I do not need a banner to "click here" to see unwanted and annoying videos. I have done everything I can to stop unwanted videos.
Put a box to click to disable the annoying videos in the news articles. I can read and do not need the distraction nor do I need a talking head spoon feeding me. I know Yahoo has lowered standards, but some of us still read! Let us opt out of the video ****

Yahoo! gets suckier and suckier with each passing day. I will now longer click the ''read more'' button after clinking on an article I wanted to read. You suck balls Yahoo. I really don't know why I keep returning. I've already closed a few accounts. I can see me closing the rest. Roll back to before that useless **** Marissa Mayer destroyed it and I'll consider staying. Tick Tick goes the clock, Yahoo. Tick tick.

I don't know what brain-dead idiot thought it was a good idea to make people click on "read more" when looking at news links. I see that people have been posting about this for months. It just started for me a few days ago. I HATE it. It is beyond asinine to have that. If I didn't want to read the entire article I would not have clicked on the link to begin with!

Reporters can't seem to write news articles: 1st para. who, what, where, when, why. News articles written like features. Need to read 2 or more paras. before reference to subject of piece. I read whole articles and barely mention of subject. Also, long articles with "more" annoying. Need to see another page. Write shorter, more precise pieces.

This feed back is no good. I can't post and you people don't listen anyway. By looking at a majority of the posts, I see that this is a waste of my time

Like the title says... lay off all the links to articles that require one to pay to read it. Scientific American, ABC News, CBS and WaPo are some offenders. I am tired of clicking on a news article link only to find I have to pay to read more than a paragraph. Seriously, knock it off!

Where did the "read more" about an article come into play. I find it distracting and making me less likely to click on the article. This never used to be the case. I now get frustrated with the load times and extra windows.

Yahoo will NEVER reply to this complaint. Never. This is why I shall abandon Yahoo. Good luck Yahoo with your preexisting bankruptcy proceedings.
PS--I won't be using my Yahoo account again despite the inconvenience I'm caused. I'll find another way because a better way exists.

I get a third of the way into an article and them and sent to a non-yahoo website that is usually even more sluggish that what yahoo has become. I used Yahoo because I felt it was a safe, quick site that I could rely on to be spam frre. Not so anymore. Clunky is the new buzz word for yahoo and it's articles. Sad.
You also need to bring back the "news carousel" that allowed us to cycle through various headlines to find an interesting read or something a day or 2 old that we might have missed. -

I don't know why you've decided you need to load up every single webpage you touch with adds and superfluous articles no one wants to read. Less is more. Your new Finance page is a glitchy nightmare.

I'm sorry Yahoo, but the new scrolling ads on your site are terrible and have made me use other sites now besides yours. One can not read an article or comments to it without the ad scrolling over the text. Then the ad stops over the text while you're trying to read it in which you can't read it anymore due to TWO ads taking up the whole middle of the screen. It's not very effective and is an annoyance to your audience. You are going to be driving more traffic away from your site than bringing in.

If I want to read an article one click should be enough.

Lately every time I click an article I have to click "read more" and get brought to a third party's website to read the whole thing. That's super annoying and not user friendly.

When I click on an article, let me read the whole thing without going to a 2nd page!! Why would I want to click "Read More" to complete an article and then be directed to a second page where the entire article opens. This is so frustrating. If I click to read something, the page I'm directed to initially should be the entire article. That simple!

Mail site down? Post it on front page! Also, start limiting the ads. It takes too long for pages to load to even read the stories. I give up reading them more than 60% of the time. Why write if you fill my screen with so much garbage my computer stops responding?

Go back to allowing readers to add comments and to be allowed to read the comments. There used to be a time that I loved to read a story and see the people's reaction, the new format borders on censorship, you know, the 1st Amendment.
