Source Selection in the Stream
I thought it was a really great feature when we could select “show less from [insert source here]” on the Yahoo Homepage Stream. But recently, I am getting just as many stories from the sources I don’t want to see, and the option has changed to ” Undo show less of [source]“…. Why am I seeing content Yahoo already knows I don’t want to see? If we are going to show the content anyway, why have the feature?

Need more headline space for thumbnails
F1 slot appears to be missing the 'Read More' link. Looks like there's plenty of space to add there. The headline on the thumbnail slots are all truncated. Looks like there's plenty of space to make it wider the headlines can fit or have more room for headlines. The gaps between the thumbnail images are unnecessary. Could tighten it up to eliminate the extra white space.

Increase prominence of "Mail, News, Finance" etc Links
Design looks good! It's cleaner and more modern looking than before.
One concern: the "Mail, news, finance" etc links in the header are small and visually nondescript. This makes it harder to get to Mail, which is the top action millions of users want to take when they get to the page.
Also, I'm not seeing any ads on the page. This looks great, but it would be good to dogfood with the real ad experience

New HP feedback
Overall, I like this new redesign - better than the current production version! That said, I do think the Ad looks too much like an article. This may increase accidental clicks; I wonder how the bounce rate looks like.

Fit and finish
Hi Team,
Congratulations on the new design.
It gives fresh look. I have some minor feedback items.
1. All the elements have rounded corners, except ads. It will be great, if we can make those too.
2. My name got cut on both sides in profile icon.
3. Notification count disappears on hover. But no notification pop over shown.
Reloading the page again brings the notification count.
4. Inside the stream news articles/video articles are not having same width/height.
Mixing them both sounds not perfect to me (just my opinion).
May be it will be good to make them same…2nd ranked -
Closing a news article
Looks great! When I open a news article, the "X" that floats on the right side is not intuitive. I didn't know what it would do, until I clicked and realized it closes the news article. The design probably needs to be better.
