Go Back to Old Yahoo Feedback Continued
The removal of so many customization features including visual appearance customization for the New Yahoo is not slimmed down and streamlined, it's just an excuse for developers to be lazy. You've been around for decades and there's zero excuse for you to not offer your users Both Versions permanently, while actually improving and adding more customization features and visual theme options to the Old Yahoo at the same time including Dark Mode options like New Yahoo has. I sent very angry feedback earlier this year when we were forced into using the New Yahoo with no option to go back to the Old Yahoo, essentially demanding the return of the ability to go back. I'm very happy to see that many other users sent the same feedback otherwise we would not be here with this ability to go back again. Thank you for actually listening, please don't get rid of the old setup ever again and spend time making that experience better too.
To expand on that, I Hate the layout of the New Yahoo user interface and cannot stand the Priority Mail category feature because how in the f*** do You Know what I consider to be a Priority to Me. With that feature, I will forget that I'm not seeing all my mail unless I select the All category or turn off the Priority Sorting feature, both steps that I Should Not Have To Do. Also, it drives me nuts that "email summaries" on the Mobile version look like they're a preview of text that is inside an email, but when you actually open the email that "preview summary" wording can't be found Anywhere in the actual email subject nor body. It's misleading click bait garbage that contributes to Yahoo Being the Problem.
I find it disgusting that "Progress" equals Basic. I've been looking forward to additional theme and visual customization features in the newer versions of Yahoo Mail for a while and the fact that New Yahoo has Zero of the themes and it's been reduced to a basic bare bones sorted mailbox doesn't strike me as "Progress." It strikes me as cheap B.S. It strikes me as you don't want to pay developers to make new themes or expand on features, rather you want to reduce how much effort you need to put in to create and code themes and customization settings. Lazy, easy to leave to AI maintenance, stripped down "simplified" inbox garbage just like any other email provider. When we were forced to use New Yahoo without the ability to go back and This was the sorry excuse of what replaced Old Yahoo, the only impression I received was "Great, they want to be lazy and be part of The Problem just like everyone else these days, instead of continuing to stand out. Gotta love that bottom dollar greed mentality."
People can use Any email provider for free these days and can choose to Stop using Yahoo at any time; be the one that stands out for Not trimming out the features that make you special. I'm sure there's a lot of people that like the simple New Yahoo interface and that's fine I guess, but as I said at the top of this feedback, you have No Excuse to not put out the money and time to make Both Versions a Permanent Option for All your users at this point in time. Merge both layouts into one customizable system so that The Users can Choose Freely at any time how they want their Yahoo Mail to look, be laid out and sorted.
I have been using Yahoo since the early 2000's when I first signed up as a young teenager, and provide this feedback in hopes that it will be taken seriously as you appear to be listening to the many of us that must have said the same thing I did about New Yahoo this year because if that wasn't true we would not suddenly have the ability to Go Back to the Old Yahoo again after all these months. So thank you again for that, and please keep listening to us. Thank you, good luck and good day.
