You've done it again. You have merged my comment with one you INCORRECTLY closed because the "show less" option STILL DOES NOT WORK!!!
This is truly ridiculous. I am trying to communicate to you that a feature of your website does not work as intended and the only response you have is to merge my comments with an already closed thread. Don't close my comments. Don't merge this with an old, already closed thread. FIX THE SHOW LESS OPTION!!!

Hi,
Our Engineering team is looking into this. If you could let us know what about the “show less” option isn’t working we would appreciate it. Please provide specific publishers if possible.
Regards,
Homepage Support

The first seven articles in my feed are from publishers on my "see less" list. Perhaps those of you at Yahoo are confused about the meaning of the word, "less." When those publishers are marked to be seen less often, it means I DO NOT WANT THREE ARTICLES FROM THAT PUBLISHER RIGHT AT THE TOP OF MY FEED.

The ... next to the news on Yahoo.com, could you change from show less to don't show at all? Better yet, just remove Entertainment, Lifestyle, and Style.

So here we are, another week later, after months of the same problem, and nothing is changed. You have said you have fixed the problem at least twice, both of which were completely untrue. I am positive you will leave this thread "under review" for a while longer, then go through the routine of asking users to send you proof of the same ads coming back by using twitter, then close this thread and say again that the problem is fixed without actually doing a thing to alter how the function works.

I just clicked on this story: https://www.yahoo.com/huffpost/people-smuggling-lot-more-weed-112432445.html
Only to find once again it is a huffington post story. I directly told you I do not wish to support huffington post, either purposely or accidentally. I asked why you do not label all stories (no answer)? I asked if you could allow a mouse hover to show the story's author...(again nothing).
Every click gives huffington added clout with advertisement..as does yahoo. Both can be eliminated. -

Seven of the first ten articles in my feed are from publishers I have marked to show less, groups of three and two from the same publishers. This has been an issue since the "show less" option was introduced and you still have not done anything to fix it. This is the third thread dealing with this, after you closed the first two saying you fixed the problem. WHAT THE **** IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE??

Just looking at the site now and the first five articles on my feed were from publishers that are on my list to be shown less. Two were from the same publisher! I don't care about articles from Who What Wear, or Elle, or Cosmo, or People, or Yahoo Lifestyle, or InStyle, or Seventeen, or PureWow, or Prevention, or Fatherly, or Entertainment Weekly, or Harper's Bazaar, or Good Morning America, or Marie Claire, or Glamour, or Vanity Fair, or ...

I have clicked over and over to show less celebrity and Style stories. I literally can not add anymore non wanted publishers but yet you still post them on my yahoo front page. FIX IT! I want to be able to 100% delete publishers not just show less because clearly that isn't working

I don't care to see anything from many of your publishers like Cosmo or Entertainment Tonight or any of that Kardashian ****. NONE. EVER. NEVER. Choosing "show less" DOES NOTHING. I still see that sh*t. IT'S EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE TO ME.

Yahoo SAYS you can see less from certain publishers, however, that means NOTHING. It does NOTHING. I NEVER want to see anything from Cosmo, people, and **** like that, but yet even though I have selected seeing less from them, I still see THE SAME AMOUNT OF THAT GARBAGE as ever. I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT **** ON MY HOME PAGE PERIOD.

for more than 4 months, i have, almost daily, clicked to remove specific publications and repeatedly clicked on "show less of this". literally daily i click on "show less" of celebrity news and it's still the majority of what is on my front page. i have selected to see less People magazine well over 100 times and just last week i had 20+ articles, about celebrities, from People. You seriously have to have more news content.

I do NOT want to see "the blast" celebrity story about the husband and his dog abuse. I have used the block feature 3x and it is still showing up. No wonder your site is trash and people are jumping ship.

Remember when we used to have the option to see articles only from select groups? One could omit "Entertainment" or "Sports" as entire categories. Now we cannot even see less from publishers, even if we select to see less from those publishers. I mean, we cannot even see less of THE SAME ARTICLE from a publisher, even if we choose to see less of that exact article. The see less option really has no effect.

If Yahoo can accept "show less of this publisher", why not "show none from this publisher"? Because you keep posting articles from publishers I loathe (and set to "show less"), like Huff Po and USA Today, I generally avoid going to Yahoo. It's propaganda. It's wrong. Should be unbiased.

So what's the game now? Put this "under review" for a few weeks, only to do nothing to fix the problem, close this comment, and deem the situation resolved again?
