  1. Signature Text Color Changed (on PC using web-based Yahoo Mail in Dark Theme)

    I love the new better Yahoo Email interface including the carried-over availability of the Dark Theme -- EXCEPT for my Signature (the text one can designate to be automatically attached at the end of every email one sends) appears to me (while on my Windows desktop computer and in Dark Theme) to be changed in color, even though on my phone in the app and I think to everybody else the color is intact. In my case, my urbane, quietly sophisticated dark gray color I use for my signature text is changed (again only while on my computer) from dark…

  3. Feedback on the new design and some recommendations.

    I’m not a fan of the new design. In my opinion, on PC everything feels overly rounded, a sort of Gmail which makes it look forced rather than professional. The email logo/icons appear pixelated within the circles. Additionally, the font is too thick, with letters that have a very uniform size, which impacts readability. I suggest adding some effects to the top and bottom or sides of the main box to enhance its visual appeal. It would also be great to have more theme options, including colored versions. On the phone, the design is okay, except for the font.
