MO. 🇬🇭 🇳🇬 (@modupeakinyemi_) reportedThings About Growing Up in Nigeria in the 2000s Only Some People Will Understand. 1) Saturday mornings were never yours. Before cartoons. Before football. Before visiting your friends. There was work to do. You swept the compound, washed the bathroom, cleaned the sitting room, washed your school uniforms, and sometimes even fetched water before anyone mentioned television. At the time, it felt unfair. Looking back, those Saturday mornings quietly taught many of us responsibility before we even knew the word. 2) The way your mum called your name told you whether to relax or start praying. If she called your first name softly, you were probably safe. But the moment your middle name and surname entered the conversation, your heart rate increased immediately. Before she even explained what happened, you had already started remembering everything you'd done wrong that week. Nigerian mothers didn't need to raise their voices. Your full name was a warning enough. 3) Missing your favourite cartoon meant waiting until next week. There was no Netflix. No YouTube. No Watch Later.lf Ben 10, Power Rangers, or Tom and Jerry came on while you were sleeping or doing chores, that's on you. Missing an episode meant spending the next week hoping your friends didn't spoil it for you. 4) Adjusting the TV antenna made you the family's broadcast engineer. One person stood outside turning the antenna while someone inside shouted instructions. "Is it clear?" "No!" "Turn it small!" "No, you've passed it!" It took teamwork, patience, and somehow it always worked eventually. 5) The internet wasn't something you had. It was somewhere you went. Going online meant going to a cyber cafe. You paid for your time, prayed the internet wasn't slow that day, and tried to finish everything before the attendant reminded you that your minutes were almost over. Opening Yahoo Mail or chatting on Yahoo Messenger felt like entering another world. 6) "Flash me" was a legitimate way to communicate. Airtime was too precious to waste. So instead of calling, you'd ring someone's phone once and cut the call immediately. They already knew what it meant: "Call me back." Nobody questioned it because everybody was doing the same thing. It wasn't stinginess. It was financial wisdom. 7) Your neighbour had permission to discipline you. There was a time when Nigerian parents believed raising a child was a community project. If your neighbour caught you climbing someone's fence or fighting outside, they didn't wait for your parents to come home. They corrected you immediately. Then they reported you anyway. You received discipline twice for the same offence. 8) Party packs determined whether a party was successful. Forget themed decorations or expensive backdrops.None of that mattered to us. The real excitement came at the end of the party when it was time to collect the party pack. We'd open it before getting home just to compare whose own was better. If yours had a bottle of Coke, biscuits, sweets, and a meat pie, you knew you had attended a big party. 9) One CD could contain twenty different movies. The cover might say Spider-Man. The movie would start with Jackie Chan. Halfway through, it suddenly became a Yoruba film. Nobody complained. You simply accepted whatever the DVD decided to give you. 10) After a certain time, the television belonged to your parents. You could forget about cartoons. Once evening came, it was time for the News, African Magic, or your parents' favourite soap opera. There was no democracy when it came to the remote. The owner of the house owned the television schedule. 11) "I'm coming" never actually meant "I'm coming." If your mum ever told you, "I'm coming," you already knew not to take it literally. She could still be bargaining over tomatoes, stop to greet three different people she hadn't seen in months, buy something she never planned to buy, and somehow still insist she was "coming."

CLars (@ChrisLarsenWI) reported@espnhomer Go to Settings (gear icon) > More Settings, or just look at the bottom left of your Yahoo Mail inbox for a storage bar. If you're at or near 100%, this is almost certainly your problem.

UNLIMITED (@divinecontactm) reported@sidrachain It seems the kycport status verification you came up with is only meant for the Gmail and Microsoft users. Those of us that registered our sidra account with Yahoo mail are not able to login to the kycport because of the unavailability of the otp. Pls see to this.

Sam B (@SamB126809) reported@Yahoo @yahoomail @YahooFinance what is wrong with your advertising content/banners/ads? they're memory hogs and grinds my browser to a crawl and my laptop fan starts spinning. what are you loading that's so heavy? has been an issue for years. I try to avoid your sites

UNLIMITED (@divinecontactm) reported@Flexycoll6 Hello Mr flexy. I can see that SCT do sometimes respond to your comments or request. Pls kindly help help us who signed up using Yahoo mail by letting the SCT to know that we are not receiving the otp and so we couldn't login. Pls don't just pretend as if everything is fine.

jjrothnc (@jjrothnc) reportedYAHOO If you have Yahoo mail and do not like that they forced the new interface on their users, COMPLAIN, on social media and look to change emails as a backup. If your a lawyer look into what users can do to complain. The new interface was forced on users to act a beta testers, and it is slow. They took away the ability to go back to the old interface. Maybe get the news media involved.

John Zabroski (@johnzabroski) reported@grace_za God help us all if Gmail becomes as vulnerable as Yahoo Mail.

im_cheikha (@imcheikha) reported@yahoomail @vick_urban Hello, I'm having the same problem. For a month now, my phone got wet and was completely destroyed. I bought a new phone, and since then, when I try to connect, it tells me they've sent a notification to my old phone, which is no longer usable. What's the solution?

Wil Chung (@iamwil) reportedThe bigger issue, I think, is the durability of digital preservation. As indicated by the erasure of geocities, livejournal, usenet, yahoo mail, and other internet troves by the private company that was supposed to steward them, digital data is never really safe.
