DW Nathan (@DNathan70056) reported@OldInternetFeel I still use Yahoo Mail, and it's become a slow, browser crashing slog to deal with. It's sluggish on my phone and even worse on the desktop. Problem is that I use my yahoo email for so many different things that it would be very difficult to switch all my email over.

Kashyap Patel (@misterketChup) reported@YahooCare @yahoomail I have been having issue (since 24th March) with newly created emails. I sent you a DM and was assured someone will get in touch. This was on 8th April. Nobody contacted me. I sent you yet another reminder DM on 13th April, but no reply received whatsoever.

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.

-
Ray Ellis (@RunOnTheMind) reported@yahoomail this latest update is rubbish. The font is dreadful and difficult to read and the new design is not at all helpful. The old version was great and did the job well. This is rubbish. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Please stop tinkering and give us the old version back.

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.

YAMAL’S UNCLE (@Rios_Ay1) reportedI don’t understand why Gmail keeps telling me to buy more storage or risk not receiving new emails. I’ve been using Yahoo Mail for over two decades and never had this kind of issue. Honestly, this is really frustrating.
