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.

Whenever I click on the notification bell when there is a red number indicating a new notification the red number stays the same, even if I leave the page and come back at a later time. This has the effect of making it rather useless.

Takes forever to upload documents or photos. Very frustrating.

When I click on Delete while in Yahoo Mail, when using Safari, it takes several seconds to delete. This doesn't happen in any other site while in Safari. It doesn't happen in Yahoo Mail while using any other browser. What is wrong?

All of a sudden, I can't view the mobile layout on desktop. It keeps forcing a desktop view. That takes too much time to load where I am. I need the speed of the mobile view when I use my laptop. Stop forcing us to use our email the way YOU think we should. That is not user-centric thinking!

Yahoo *******!! Can't do anything in my mail account. Little wheel just spins while nothing happens.

On a regular basis, if I decide to review a message in Trash while using the Web mail, it won't open. Moments later a yellow banner at the top says something like "another site is preventing the page from opening". I'm accustomed to having multiple tabs open like most people, and this is annoying and needs to be resolved.

System way too slow, and I can't stand the list of emails devoted to each conversation, too distracting. I know how to find the emails I want. Change this or I am permanently going to outlook. Which is a way better system. And I can't ever export contacts. Just a big waste of time!!

I must commend you on the latest update of Yahoo mail. Before your last update I didn't experience the fun of watching my entire inbox disappear upon deleting an email, only to reappear way down the list. With the old version I missed out on the fun of reading an email, only to have it jump to the bottom of the mail, forcing me to continually scroll back up to continue reading. It was so silly that in your old version the moment I clicked to either select, open, delete, or any other action it instantly happened, I didn't have those extra 5 to 6 seconds, after clicking, (yes I timed it) to contemplate life, or why Yahoo mail ***** so much. When I add up those extra seconds considering all things done in Yahoo mail, what a chunk of time I get to waste using your crappy product. Thank you, Yahoo, for taking a usable product, to one that is slow, draggy, buggy, erratic, unreliable...certain of my contacts that could mail me before your upgrade now cannot get their emails through...what fun. Of course I can always switch to the basic version, but that's basically useless as most features are disabled, because let's face it, you really don't want your users to have a frustration free experience now do you? I can hardly wait for your next upgrade where you will advance to complete uselessness.

Mail system is too slow to respond. Clearing Spam or Trash takes too long to go from one to the other. Don't like the mail setup.

Mark emails as read is slow - it takes a long time even if there is only few emails.

Even simple stuff, like deleting a contact is onerous. Hit "reply" to an email, and unless you remember to move the cursor, the first few words of your response are covered by that person's name and flashy new initials.
Who comes up with this nonsense?
Jeeez...inertia has kept me in yahoo! mail, while so many friends have abandoned it. I'm getting ready to do the same.
Hard to imagine how I'd keep my job, if I kept offering lower and lower standards of quality. Looks like I'm not alone in feeling this way.
