It would be nice if you could scroll through to read an article without the ads moving around and getting in your way, good god
Ad bug, the ads from the right now move over to the left and you can't make them move to see the actual content on the page. Is this a bug? Can you fix it?

Thank you again for reporting this issue, our Engineers have resolved the issue and you should no longer see ads covering article content.

It happens in chrome and explorer. I click an article, read approximately the first paragraph and then the ads on right will move/float to the left. I can scroll the page up and down but no longer read the article or comments. It happens with every article.

Can you keep your ads to the right of the screen? When ever I'm attempting to read an article, the ad moves and blocks it. It's annoying af!

I'm using the chrome browser and yahoo tech needs to do the same to see what were are seeing!!!. This has happened for 2 solid days and i'm ready to no longer use yahoo as i'm sure millions are also feeling the same way!! Many companies have failed and are now in the dust bin of history. Montgomery Ward was around for a hundred years is one of many examples. GONE forever!!! because they ignored their customers.

Who got the stupid idea to start popping ads right on top of articles so that the article can't be read? Really unbelievable! Who in the **** is going to keep going to Yahoo if they can never read an article all the way through. I'm OUT!

Pull these ads off of your stories and the comment sections. They cover everything up and you cant read it!

Chrome, Yahoo scrolling down. Display ads, 4 boxes maybe 4" square of different products. Will get shot next time it happens. Do not click anything. Ads just pop up and obscure most of the article.

(For me) It only happens when using Chrome (Version 76.0.3809.132 (Official Build) (32-bit) under Windows 10 64-bit). Other browsers do not have the issue. It only occurs within stories (pretty much all stories). The story previews on the right side move left and overlay the story and/or comments after you have scrolled past the bottom point of the story previews on the right. Before that, the previews behave and stay put on the right where they belong.

This is happening to me too. I'm using Google Chrome. I scroll down and the ads just block all point of view and I can't read any of the article.

Ad's lay over the top of stories and make it impossible to finish reading anything.

Your so called fix for the same issue isn't a fix. My browser is the latest version. SO since I have figured out it isn't my fault, fix it.

Ads floating over from the right when scrolling down cover the articles and comments making their website completely useless. I can't believe they haven't fixed this bug yet.

WHY ARE YOUR ADS THAT ARE NORMALLY ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PAGE ARE NOW COVERING THE ENTIRE STORY AND COMMENTS SECTION MAKING THEM UNREADABLE!!! STOP IT!!!

I don't know whose brilliant idea it was change your format on these ads, but, I think you might want to do some random drug tests. It's a pain in the butt to change my e-mail to another service, but, I will if this *****-up continues.

WHY IN THE **** ARE YOU PUTTING ADS ON TOP OF THE PAGE CONTENT?? IT'S ONE THING TO HAVE THEM TO THE RIGHT, BUT IF YOU PUT THEM ON TOP OF THE ARTICLE, HOW IN THE **** IS ANYONE SUPPOSED TO READ IT?? HELLO??????
