Quit publishing years-old stories
What's with all of the years-old stories cluttering the news feed? They're showing as current dates when opened, but the content is YEARS old - Miley Cyrus's "Wrecking Ball" cover is one example. And while you're at it, any way to fix all of the repetitive posts of stories? I keep having deja vu moments scrolling down the feed as I find series of stories - three, four, and more -- repeated from earlier.

Virtual keyboard popping up
It seems like a lot of users are complaining about the virtual keyboard popping up when going from the homepage to a news article, and then again upon return to the homepage. That's happening to me too, and it's an irritant. Thank you.

Where is the missing page indicator?
When scrolling through Yahoo tech pages, at the bottom of the screen, there is no (current) page indicator for the page you are on. As you go from page 1 to 2 to 3 you eventually loose track of what page you are on.

bug report
the "manage account" button top/right has a target circle that is much too large. It comes too close to the "close article" button and very often interferes.

Back Arrow
When I hit the back arrow after reading an article, I'm returned to the top of the page, not the headline I was reading about. This causes me to have to scroll all the way back down to get to my starting point. Very frustrating time after time!

Back button on Yahoo news
About a month or so ago a bug started happening on your news site. When i am looking through the news and click on an article then hit back instead of going back where you were as it used to do now it takes you back to the beginning. This means you have to search to get back to where you were before you clicked on an article. This is very annoying. I hope you will fix this bug soon. I may have to find a different site to get my news because this is so irritating!

Major problem! When you click on an article to read and then go back, it goes to a blank tab and you have to hunt to reload the homepage.

COMMENTS not displaying

Takes way too long for anything to display. Other news sites I access work fine.

Allow users to specify their location by Zip Code
Content on my home page is derived from my ISP's location which isn't where I live. I use T-Mobile Home Internet & apparently they route traffic through a location outside of Charlotte, NC but I live 90 miles away is Florence, SC so location specific content incorrect for me. Please allow Users to set their location rather than use a faulty method of guessing the users location!

Fix the mute feature
It's happening again.
@Stephen74173
I hope you are getting tired of reading these, because I am getting tired of wasting my time writing them.
You need better processes to mute people. I will try to mute someone, they get muted for about 15-40 seconds, then you bring them back. I think you do this to keep American's divided and fighting. This is not a one time thing. This has happened at least 100 times to me in the last month. I think the equitable thing to do is to repost this everytime I have mute the same person again.726th ranked -

I will start adding the person that I am trying to mute to show you that this is an ongoing issue.

It just happened six more times on one person. So I hope you correct your error quickly. The longer it takes, the more it reinforces…
