Your removing publisher feature does not work. You closed all comments but your feature does not work!!!

Our product team has investigated and has resolved the issue. The Show less feature should now work as expected.

Using the 'Manage Publishers' options you've provided doesn't work. At all. I ask you to 'Show Less' and then my feed ends up with nothing but articles from the publishers I asked you to show me less of... Are you really this incompetent or are you actually just ******* with us?

Extend the feature to be "Don't show anything from..."
I'm a middle-aged heterosexual male, I don't need to see ANYTHING from Elle, Cosmopolitan, Yahoo Style, House Beautiful, Teen Vogue, Country Living, etc...

I can successfully "show less from..." yet still stories from the publishes I've hidden show up! Add a "block stories from ..." because if I want to block stories from Huffpo or Vogue, or Vox, I don't ever want to see another story from them on my Yahoo feed again. It shouldn't be that hard to do.

The fact that this broken functionality was allowed to make it to a production server is very revealing about what kind of "tech" company Yahoo has devolved into.

I have to keep adding the same publishers over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again, and again, and again, and again, etc. It's like Yahoo hasn't figured out cookies, or how to remember profile settings. It didn't work 4 years ago, it still doesn't work.

How about putting up a "Block Publisher" option and make it work. Very tired of the same **** every single day.

My Yahoo home page is nothing but what women would prefer to read not me. When I select the show less option Yahoo completely ignores my selected option. Why is that ? Why do you have the option ? Why does Yahoo ignore what I have selected ? Why am I getting so much feminine type articles ?

This hasn't been addressed yet! Any article I mark to show less almost invariably shows up FIRST on my feed!

When a person states they want to see less of a publication why does Yahoo continue to saturate the pages with these publications, specifically I despise the Kardasians and try to minimize anything from publications that feature them. What does Yahoo do, NOTHING! The same **** is on my opening page time after time of logging on. I don't like them, what they stand for or anything about them. STOP putting them on every single page! I'm not alone in hating these jerks.

If you keep selecting a particular genre of view and your company keeps changing the venue to keep putting it in front you, when you've told them over and over again that you don't want that, then you don't listen, you do what you want just to make monies. I don't want sports, I don't want media hype, I don't want your scamming sponsors, your 500 plus ads and tracking cookies. I want to read new, world, local and national. NEWS, not hype, not left wing or right wing, and not censored. I don't want sports (**** that ****), I could careless about what some celebrity was wearing or *******. I want to know what is going in my country.

Why do I have to "show less" HuffPost every single day? I get rid of it and the next day, it shows up and when I select it, it indicates it is not to be shown less! Scam by Yahoo!

That's why I'm here as well. For about a decade, yahoo users have begged yahoo to stop shoving Huff Post on us all the time, but yahoo kept removing those requests, waiting for another millions requests, and then just clearing the requests again. They finally gave us the "option" to remove Huff Post, but that option has no impact. Huff Post is the only news source blocked from my yahoo stream, yet it remains by far the most common news source in my stream. I still see about 4 articles from them each day. I've seen maybe one article from The Federalist, one from CNS, and perhaps two articles from Fox News during this same entire decade that yahoo users were requesting the option to get rid of Huff Post. I already know what Huff Post offers: "Trump is mansplaining his wall to Rosie O'Donnell and the internet is FREAKING OUT!!!" Many of us have outgrown that and want real news.

I have zero interest in Celebrities or Lifestyle and my newsfeed seems to full of this trivia despite the fact that I keep clicking "see less". This is the last chance before I abandon Yahoo for something more intelligent.

All of the sites I have marked on my "show less" list are the ones that show up first and most frequently. I DON'T WANT TO SEE ARTICLES FROM TEEN VOGUE OR DELISH OR COSMOPOLITAN.

You supposedly give us the ability to see less of a news source, but certain sources, like the HuffPost, are still showing up with as many news stories as before. I understand you guys are trying to pass on only the information and views you want people to see, but you're being rather obvious about the whole thing.
