Our Yahoo Mail has been acting wonky all afternoon. Anyone else having issues?

Yahoo is my home page and it's been flaky (not responding) 2 days.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Since they added ads everywhere, it's been a nightmare. Unfortunately, I use it as my main email so changing it to another service won't be easy. I didn't use the email attached to my internet provider because I didn't want the problem if I changed providers.

ITA. I hate the new format of it. Mine scrolls up and down randomly, and I find myself trying to use the cursor without hitting one of those ads. I miss the old format, which was much easier to use!

If you pay Yahoo the ransom of $5 a month they will remove the ads.

I'm not going to pay them anything so I may have to spend a week of my life choosing a new email service and notifying everyone that has my old one to change to the new one.

Well, things seem to bevbe sorta of back to normal. I agree with other comments that Yahoo can be a pain, especially with more ads and constantly changing formats.

Same here I have had the same yahoo e mail for the last 15 years since I have had a computer, it would be a huge hassle to change at this point

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

yes, it's been awful for the last week for me. many messages are coming in a day after they were originally sent. hopefully, they'll have it fixed soon.

ATT is my ISP, and they are 'powered by' Yahoo. It's ALWAYS wonky. It's kind of like QVC - every time they decide to make improvements, things get worse.

It's been a hideous mess for a while now.
