The new format sucks!!!!!! If I can't switch back I will find a new homepage.
Allow the customers to switch back. There is not one post here or on the net that says that someone likes the new format

Thank you for the feedback! We do have an option to revert back to the previous version. At the top of the page you should see a purple banner. Within that banner you would need to click on "Old Version" or you'll see an option saying return to yahoo.com. For additional support please visit help.yahoo.com

Obviously Yahoo has downgraded the utility of the website/page in order to try get users to pay up for a premium service. It's a free country, so I will likely be going elsewhere unless the utility of the original My.Yahoo page is maintained.
Thanks for nothing.

If you DO change the home page, I'm out of here. (and it appears, I'm not alone)

Agreed. I am entirely uninterested in what other people think is trending this week. It now looks like every other legacy website landing page.
I don't care about celebrities, sports, bus crashes in India, horoscopes, or reality TV. If I cannot customize my content there is no reason to be on Yahoo. -

Why do you web page creators think that there is a need for change all the time? Quit trying to justify your jobs by thinking change is necessary!

As far as I know, My Yahoo is fairly unique in terms of being self-curated homepage. Have the headlines from subject areas and content providers that I care about, and can choose is really the best way to interface with the Internet. Add to the a scoreboard, weather, and stock ticker (from my page), and I really do have a personalized place to go. Once (if) you discontinue My Yahoo my interactions with Yahoo will fall off sharply. It truly boggles the mind that this can be beneficial to your bottom line.

Have had my yahoo as homepage for years with NBC news, NPR, BBC and my portfolio. Have NYT, WAPO, AP, and Reuters bookmarked in my bowser. I know how to read and do not need news feeds selected for me and displayed in video and sound. I now need a new homepage and more book marks for what I have enjoyed on "my yahoo." Also, on my portfolio, I would never put online my holdings; please quit prompting me to do that.

I like the current MyYahoo. Please reconsider the change to the "New Yahoo" I am able to add content category that I want to see, not some random page of information of no interest to me. I also like that my portfolio is right there on my home page and don't have to go searching for it. I have looked at the new proposed layout and it is horrible! either make it better or you will lose another viewer.

Give us our old yahoo back our me and many many other people will be dropping yahoo COMPLETELY. Kind of hard to have a company with no customers.

Quit trying to FORCE people to take something that they do not want. I like the old yahoo. You keep changing it to the new and I keep putting it back to the old because I DO NOT WANT THE NEW YAHOO. QUIT FORCING PEOPLE TO TAKE WHAT THEY DON'T WANT OR YOU WILL LOSE THEM FROM YOUR SITE.

The coming new Yahoo home page sucks! It is far less functional than the current format, plus too much news and sports of little or no interest. Kindly preserve the current home page, it is far superior.

My Yahoo has been my start page since it was launched in 1996. I could not possibly use the new version as it is currently presented.

Hating the new look. Looks like you are trying to mimic Social Media with the layout. Please keep the MyYahoo so we can personalize it.

Keep My Yahoo. The layout is comfortable, not cluttered, and is easy to work with. Why fix something that isn't broken?

I use yahoo because of the customization, otherwise the sites are alike.... they dictate what we should see.... and as far as all the advertising, I make it a point not to buy anything I see over and over and over.... or what takes up a third of the page.... these sites are actually worse than an old fashion catalog, just constantly IN YOUR FACE!

I've gone from a fully customizable homepage on My Yahoo! to this piece of garbage. What could have possibly been the objective of this change? Epic failure. I can't believe Yahoo! is actually paying people to ruin a perfectly fine and useable My Yahoo! homepage. And for what? Let me guess...more screen real estate for ads and click bait articles. I need to rethink my homepage strategy and find a new vendor.
