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

After 20+ years of using yahoo, I'm about to move on. The site is worthless for monitoring the things of interest to me. I can deal with ads as I understand that nothing is free, but going to a once size fits all format eliminates what made my.yahoo so good. I saw someone comment on using start.me instead. I'm exploring using it instead. It looks a lot like what my.yahoo was, perhaps even better. I'll check in on my.yahoo periodically over the next couple months, but if yahoo doesn't bring back the individuality, I'm gone for good.

It's self-explanatory: You messed up and don't care, so my time is up to be affiliated with Yahoo any longer.

BRING BACK MY.YAHOO HOMEPAGE. What were you thinking? The new page SUCKS and has NOTHING I need. PLUS, all the LINKS I've used DAILY for YEARS are gone. Thanks Yahoo great job (sarcasm).

What you have forced us into after having a customizable MyYahoo for many years is terrible.
I care little about celebrity stuff and only want to see the sports, weather, portfolios and some news blurbs on my homepage.
What you have given us is a waste of time where I have to click on multiple things to get anything I want to see. I hope your advertisers will be very happy when I switch to something else.
Please read all the comments here and put it back the way most people want it. -

I've had My Yahoo for well over 20 years, and you just drop it? And I do not think anyone is listening. I hate the new layout.

The big question: WHO ASKED for a format change? Now that you've tried it, and you don't have many "likes," WHEN can we go back to the customizable "My Yahoo" page that we all preferred? I think from the comments you can tell it didn't go over too well, so can we just switch back? Today, I saw the "sneak peek" blurb, so I clicked on it -- still didn't see anywhere I could customize what I see. Consider this experiment a failure, and let's return to our regularly scheduled programming!

I have avoided the new layout but it now seems I have no choice. Now I am leaving Yahoo to find a new finance page to follow. The old layout allowed me to follow all markets at a glance and was very easy to read. My Watchlist was the same. Now the page is very busy and the stocks are no longer digested in a quick glance. Sorry Yahoo. You blew it on this one.

The reason I used My Yahoo! is because I could see my stock watch list and it was a bonus to see some news stories. Without the ability to see my stocks I foresee using Yahoo less.

New is not improved, the "MyYahoo" was the best thing going for Yahoo... you had regular Yahoo, and a personalized one... Now Yahoo is nothing, but generic junk shoved at your customers.

This has been my go to page for sports scores, stocks, news about my favorite sport teams. It is the page I used to start my day to since 1998. The new www.yahoo.com is not useful and personalized to me and very generic. The very least consider adding a few of the crucial widgets to the yahoo.com. I will have to look for alternatives if this is not done.

The old homepage was much better. Please make returning an option and then you shall see how disliked the new setup is!
