HEY YOU! (@melodyscarlett) reported@LeperMessiah18 @yahoomail They asked me to contact them via DM, which I did. This is what they said: "Thank you for sharing this information. We recommend checking the app again later, as this may be a temporary bug. We apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused you" App STILL not working!

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.

Paul VanDerHeyden (@Curunir471) reportedFor anyone who's wondering, Yahoo email customer support is among the worst I've ever experienced. Utterly unable to assist and unwilling to provide any avenues to resolve a simple storage issue that doesn't cost money. Trash service. @Yahoo @yahoomail #garbagesupport #SHAME

You have a widespread problem - for example, as a user of your platform via your partnership with Sky in UK, I cannot access webmail either - the Yahoo Mail app for iOS is functioning normally. 20:43 hrs UK.

VacationHomesOnly.com (@vhoinc) reported@yahoomail @Yahoo @YahooCare the Android Yahoo mail app update ruined the search function. I can no longer edit my search terms and have to start over every time. Please fix this!" I search my email using search strings to find specific things, people, and correspondence. I was able to modify my search strings and quickly try the search again. Can no longer do that. Now have to type out a whole new search string every time I need to modify it....terrible. Productivity Killer. #EmailSearch #YahooMail
