Show Less Option does not work
The "Show Less" option does not seem to "Show Less" of any of the publishers I do not want to see on the news feed. Can this be fixed?

Try letting people who own the accounts pick what they want on their homepage! I do not use this ****** site for anything other than email but I get tired of loading 2gigs of worthless ads every single time I open this page. And by the way stop trying to get the Yahoo lite to install I got it linked as phishing so it gets blocked everytime. I am 50 years old and had a vasectomy 26 years ago so I DO NOT NEED ADS ABOUT UNEXPECTED PREGNANCY

Like everyone else here, I’ve stayed that I do NOT want to see junk from Huff Post, the Independent, Bloomberg or other liberal media outlets. It obviously isn’t working. Fix this bug.

If you give me a tool to choose my news sources...
Could you at least make it work? -

I checked see less from HuffPost many years ago, but yet every time I’m on yahoo there’s at least a half dozen liberal, gun hating, socialist, Trump hating articles featured. So if I didn’t check see less would I see a dozen of this ridiculous articles? How about option to see zero from HuffPost?

This option to see less is a scam you still cram your liberal lies and fake news down our throats. Yapoo and all its butt buddies suck.

I still have a few functioning brain cells left, so obviously I don’t want to see Kardashians/Jenners, the Bachelor or PureWow. No matter how many times I swipe, there they are back again. I’ll check and see if msn can accommodate my preferences.

Your propaganda doesn't work, you do realize that right. It just gets us stuck in the ground even tighter. Funny how I have asked not to see Huff and Puff, but yet all that happens is that you allow me to UNDO my decision...lol.
You will not control the people by being the gateway you think you have a right to be.
Keep trying to control the conversation, we will eventually just have it without you, and no, we will not open the door for you.

The manage publishers utility is a joke, completely nonfunctional. In fact, choosing to see less of a given publisher seems to actually guarantee that I will see MORE of them. And managing publishers should include the ability to designate topics about which I wish to see less. Yahoo is the official AOC network, all the Ocasio-Cortez, all the time. I am sick of you pushing her on us. Additionally, I am sick of the constant stream of Kardashian/Jenner drama, and could really care less about the Royals. We fought a war to get out from under them, but you wouldn’t know it from the volume of content you produce. Make the manage publishers truly functional.

Agreed! The Show Less feature should disable the constant bombardment of idiotic Kardashian-Jenner, Chrissy Tiegen, Ayesha Curry updates faux news, but every time I look the nonsense continues.

Allow me to block all of huffington post. Forever. Allow me to block yahoo fashion. Forever. It seems when I choose to show less of particular news source yahoo decides to double the articles from the blocked source on my news feed. I would like news not yahoo’s ever changing clickbait agenda

Im tired of seeing so many articles from publications I don’t want to read. Please give me the ability to hide articles from publications that I choose not to see.

Make the news feature so that the user can pick what they want to look at instead of the junk that keeps popping up and won't go away with the show less.

The swipe option does not remove the article directly but rather provides an indicator to show less of that content from that publisher. If you refresh, you may see similar stories again, swiping those stories as well will help provide more indicators. Over time, Yahoo will learn your interests and attempt to show you less of those stories and providers.

When I select a publication to show less or select a publication in the manage publication section it NEVER works. I can select a publication and half the time I refresh the page and the exact publication I just wanted to see less shows up again. If not right away the next day it’s like I’ve never been on Yahoo! And all the publications I didn’t want to see are still featured. It makes me feel that Yahoo! Is pushing their preferences rather than respecting my preferences. If you are going to ignore what people want what is the point? Or are there specific publications you ignore and others you don’t when the preferences align with Yahoo!?

The title says it all. Every time that I tell it to show less, one of the other publishers that I don't want to see comes back.
Fix it.
