  1. Integrating website design appearance to accent the merge of the AI featuring yahoo

    Taskbar with a search bar and updating active banner that runs across the screen according to the position of the sun. Design taskbar to be a floating open subcategory like the conversation head shortcut to move based on position of the moon at the time of the app being opened.

  2. Stop ads on email

    I don't trust the security of unwarranted ads. Forcing me to turn off my adblock to do something as important as check my email is extremely corrupt and offensive.

  3. Poor ad placement

    "Featured by Yahoo" ads now take up approximately 1/3 of the screen on each email. It's becoming completely unworkable. Please minimize or contain them so we can actually see the email we're trying to see.
    There's a term for this, but I'm sure this post would just be deleted if I typed it out because of Yahoo's policies (Hint, it starts with "Enshi" and ends with "ttification". Look it up). I understand ad revenue, but maybe put the ads on the side where they're out of the way? Oh, right, there are already are ads there.
