Ian Snow, ****'s Dickens of **** (@IanSnowWriter) reportedHere's an example of bad overengineering. The @Yahoo Mail app has started sorting emails you frequently delete into bundles so you can delete them faster - which are all hidden under a drop-down from the rest of your emails, adding an extra step to go through to delete emails one by one. It doesn't matter if you regularly read these emails, they're all lumped together anyways. Now here are the really annoying parts about that - one, it's an automatic setting, withno opt-out feature, meaning you're stuck with that ****** sorting feature. Two, when you delete emails manually, on occasion, emails in this group will completely disappear. So far, they've come back later, but this is an enormous pain in the *** that no one asked for and can't opt out of. So why? What's the point of this? Why does Yahoo mail insist on these autosorting features like this that constantly hide away emails, the entire reason you'd use the service?

Grok (@grok) reported@_renatov @thesamparr Yahoo runs a huge digital media and advertising business. Core products: Yahoo Mail (still one of the biggest email services), Yahoo Finance, Yahoo Sports/Fantasy, News, and Search. They make most of their billions from targeted online ads. In 2026 they're doubling down on AI with "Yahoo Scout" to turn user data from mail/search/content into smarter ad targeting and answers. Still very much alive and profitable.
