  @sidrachain Please kindly help us that use Yahoo mail to sign up our sidra account. The system isn't dispensing the otp and this is a major concern because I personally haven't been able to login and upgrade my account. Please help solve this problem.

  @yahoomail Second DM while her email is working on her laptop running windows 10, it’s telling her it’s not working on her iPad! And it’s repeating the statement that she can’t send or receive emails, which appears not to be true. Please get this sorted properly!

  Popular Services/Messengers That Are Typically NOT (Fully) End-to-End EncryptedThese are the ones affected by scanning under the current EU Chat Control setup which has passed today in the EU: Email services (most standard ones): - Gmail (Google) - Outlook/Hotmail (Microsoft) - Yahoo Mail - iCloud Mail (Apple, standard) - Many others without E2EE enabled - Facebook/Instagram Messenger (standard mode) — Often not fully E2EE unless "Secret Conversations" are turned on - Skype (standard chats) — Microsoft can access content. - Snapchat — Chats and snaps are not E2EE by default (some features have it, but not comprehensively) - Telegram (standard/cloud chats) — Encrypted between device and server, but Telegram holds the keys and can access content. Only "Secret Chats" are protected. - Discord — Messages are not E2EE; the company can moderate/scan - Older/traditional SMS/MMS — Completely unencrypted. - Xbox Live messaging and some gaming platforms. - Cloud storage/file sharing tied to chats (e.g., Dropbox, iCloud, Google Drive in some contexts) — Often scanned Let that sink in ! allegedly to fight against child abuse

  @yahoomail how is it that someone can hack my email and you cannot fix it or verify my account. This is crazy.

  @sidrachain @sidrachain Hello. My account is locked out because your system cannot deliver OTP codes to Yahoo Mail. Your support website is broken and your support email address does not exist. Please help me manually update my profile to my new Gmail. My username is: [nonybest1]

  @sidrachain Weldon for the great work you are doing. Those of us who registered with Yahoo mail are still finding it difficult to login to our kyc port. Please I suggest you re-introduce the login with password+google authentication for us, so we too can be part of the new system upgrade.

  Example: Gmail, Yahoo Mail, Outlook, Hotmail, Yopmail, etc. It does NOT mean opening 5 Gmail accounts. b. Desktop Mode To put your phone in desktop mode for the NYSC website: Step 1: Enter the NYSC link first Step 2: It will show an error

  FOR YEARS I'VE RELIED ON @yahoomail FOR ALL MY EMAIL NEEDS, BUT ITS RELIABILITY HAS FALLEN IN THE PROVERBIAL SHITTER! I CAN'T REMEMBER HOW MANY PASSWORDS, PASSCODES AND TEXT VERIFICATIONS FOLLOWED BY CONFIRMATIONS ON BACKUP EMAIL ACCOUNTS ARE REQUIRED NOW BUT I GET ALL THE CODES, AND IT ALWAYS TAKES A ****, I THINK, IT'S AT THE 75TH PASSWORD LEVEL. HELL I CANNOT KEEP UP WITH THEM NOW. NOW I HAVE TO BLOW A DAY TRYING TO FIND SOMEBODY THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH SO I CAN FIGURE OUT WTF IS GOING ON. THE IPHONE APP NO LONGER WORKS, AND I CANNOT LOGIN VIA THE DESKTOP NOW. THIS ABSOLUTELY SUCKS!

  @kmcnam1 That can't be true. They did used to ask you to upgrade to get more storage. Until the past coupl years, my problem with Yahoo mail was their awful spam detector that let spam and phishing emails get through.

  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 as beta testers, and it is slow. They took away the ability to go back to the old interface. Maybe get the news media involved.

  For over a month, multiple Yahoo Mail folders show as empty. It first said 'temporary error' — now nothing. Critical legal emails are missing. I need urgent escalation and recovery help, please." And then you can tag @YahooCare.

  Things 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."
