  3. Set mandatory minimums for comment section posts

    My complaints with Yahoo's subpar moderation are well documented in the Play Store. But here it is in a nutshell: the more thoughtful, clearly stated and well-written a comment section post is, the more likely it is to be rejected or "held for moderation" in a process that can take hours if it's resolved at all. Meanwhile, poorly written ESL troll trash in clear violation of Yahoo's rules makes its way into publication with no apparent trouble at all. This is especially true at night, on weekends and with hot, breaking news stories about US politics or Ukraine, where Yahoo's…

  5. Fix your URLs

    https://ca.news.yahoo.com/ap-votecast-takeaways-early-republican-120143675.html

    Here's an example from today's report. AP article lays bare Trump's weakness with the broad US electorate and it's given a Canadian URL so American Yahoo users can't comment on it. Removing the CA and refreshing works sometimes but often (like today) goes to an error page. This happens all too frequently; who's responsible for this? It gives the impression that you're hiding news. That's Infotainment.

  6. Monitor more than one city, for news.

    It's critical for me to monitor both a city in WA state and CA. In Google News this is easily done. I haven't found it possible on Yahoo News. Please add!

  7. Stop pushing the liberal America hating agenda

    There are many outlets out there that hate America and hide the opposition view, aka the truth. Look up the word integrity and use that as a guide to be different from the rest.

    STOP SHOWING WOMEN ALMOST NUDE its quite obvious that the ratio of men to women is not balanced and is pushing women as objects. Thats why i choose news elsewhere. Yahoo news is a last resort.

  11. no more articles/opinion/news from the telegraph

    i blocked everything from the telegraph in my feed yet at the end it seems i get every telegraph article out there... i do not consider it a legitimate news source-- it's a tabloid full of innuendo, garbage, and clickbait... the UK combo of the NY Post, Washington Times, Fox "news", and all the dubious right-wing podcasts... the telegraph is a waste of space.

  12. Set a minimum word or character count for comments

    Forcing people to elaborate on their opinions a little would eliminate the two or three-word "troll trash" that's so common on your message boards.

  13. Pay to read article links are maddening

    Add a disclaimer stating "this is a pay to read article" on the title page so i do not click on it at all. I am not going to sign up and or pay for a site just to read an article. Stop wasting my time with links to pay to read articles.

  16. Get rid of ads that take up the whole screen

    I'm now coming across ads that take up my entire screen. The only way to get past them is to swipe scroll so that you get past it. Otherwise any attempt to scroll on the ad itself opens the ad. I don't want ads. I will never click anything that is an ad. Ads of this size should not be allowed. Make them smaller and add a prompt saying "are you sure you want to leave the article to view this ad?"

    What is the pint of asking for my news preferences if you will not post them. This is so disgusting it is like that unwanted **** shoved in mouth. I DO NOT WANT TOP STORIES! And yet ypu believe like the **** ypu are to only shovel BS on to my top stories.

  19. There is very little story variety. Also a lot of the stories are poorly written.

    Too many stories lack depth. The variety of stories is also a problem. The yahoo news app feels more like a thrown together afterthought than a curated program. Many story's are poorly written. The first 2-3 paragraphs of almost every story can be skipped because they rarely contain meaning, just fill or attempts at "attention grabber" and fluff. The bullet point idea works, but even the bullet points are often poorly written and vague. It's like looking at a 7th graders attempt at taking independent notes.

  20. Remove the Billionaires poll

    There is a poll asking if billionaires are doing what they do for a betterment of mankind and b vanity and greed I voted on this poll about 6 months ago but it's still on my feed page if you can change it or instead do a weakly poll on the latest news I think that would be a much more interactive than seeing the same poll for 6 months.
