Yahoo mail is so slow
Yahoo mail is so so so slow on my computer. I've been using my college email address instead (gmail) because it works so much better. However, now that I am about to graduate I have been using my yahoo email more - but it's just so frustrating how glitchy and slow it is. I really do not want to have to get an entire new email address (I would definitely use gmail if I made a new one) but if this isn't fixed soon I'm not going to have a choice.

Please try clearing cookies, cache, history, and footprints. To do so, please go to https://help.yahoo.com/kb/new-mail-for-desktop/sln27197.html
Also, please make sure to update your browser and if the problem still persists try to access Yahoo Mail in another browser.

browser doesn't display email in account info or otherwise as it is truncated. Its so poor. Can yahoo not afford testers?

Are none of your Development Team using Basic Mail to Compose messages any more. Usually when I have problems they go away rapidly when they get Fixed by developers who see the problems because they too are actually USING the software. Lately, the composing area will move when I reach the bottom of the viewing area of the current Message I'm working in using Basic Mail (New Mail messes up MUCH too much, so I drop back two versions and Punt).

the most annoying part of email cashing is that you don't seem to improve the situation you seem to go as it comes so the sys keeps crashing over and over, and that's unacceptable for a company of the size of yahoo, you have a responsibility of millions if not billions, so stop smoking ***** starts showing real professionalism ...

Yes i have deleted cookies and restarted chrome, I have tied all the basic things to make it stop jumping sizing / resolution.

stephen Pettitt commented
The screen sizing continually changing and jumping around - using Chrome - all other tabs using gmail ebay etc are stable, go to Yahoo tab and it constantly - every few seconds changes sizing / resolution - note this is not the monitor this is YOUR app.

my yahoo mail page keeps shifting from small to big, small to big, which doesnt allow me to click anything properly anymore. it seems like the ad box on the far right is causing that space malfunction. i can barley delete emails, copy paste, or even read emails. even if i dont do anything, and just wait, it will keep doing that, for hours. im going to be using gmail until you guys resolve this issue. ultimately if this isnt resolved there is no way to use yahoo mail, without spending an extra 20 minutes, on a one minute task. by then id have yanked all of the hair out of my skull. please help me resolve this issue, as i have used yahoo for almost my whole life, and would be sad to see it go.

Whenever I type a message, there is a looong delay before I see what I have typed. This does not happen elsewhere in Yahoo or other apps.

When I open up my email from Medium.com, the graphics are not appearing anymore. I can see them on my iPhone when I access my email, but not on my iMac desktop.
I've already checked my settings, so please don't suggest that. -

Delete not deleting, cursor jumps to address line. Fix these problems that started with your 'improvements' a year ago.

There are other posts on this but nothing that I can vote for. I can open the Yahoo email webpage fine in Chrome but many actions like changing the folder that I view causes the page to redraw incorrectly. I can reset the view for a bit by just changing the Page Zoom setting but it does not solve the problem permanently. This is making the web application unusable using Chrome. It works fine in Firefox but that is not always an option for me. Please consider expanding your list of supported/tested browser to include one of the more popular ones (Chrome).
