    Let me give you my take about the fud some people are on about @RealBucketShop First off, all of this is hand-made :) not written by some language model, and not addressed to those living organisms who are trying to make a living out of throwing dirt at others with a broken heart and soul. if they take what they can take, thats on them. If you want to learn how cool it is to KNOW, and protect yourself from false information, continue reading. if you dont, just stop right here, and all the best for ya. It will be so easy to comprehend as I will give solid examples. Regarding "similarities". Real edge in businesses whether its small or big, primarily comes from "variety" and "solving more problems", the ones who trusts their position like it doesnt change, and dont improve, were cannibalized at the end of the day.. Let me give you some examples, since im some 40+ year old.. Zoom.. It came after Skype (never heard?), when video meetings were booming.. but after that, Zoom made it way simpler, more reliable, more businessy. Photo sharing.. It already existed on Facebook, but Instagram made it mobile first, visuals first, and built an entire social network out of it. Fun fact. Social networking was also present before Facebook, and people used it for long years, Myspace! Do you know Myspace? It was SUPERB!.. Moving on.. Google, you think there was no search engine before? Have you ever heard of Altavista, or even Yahoo? No? Okay. Now you know Google made it faster, and performed much better at ranking results, and started pioneering.. Gmail is also after Yahoo mail, note that as well.. (same mechanics? :)) not finished.. another one most of you never heard, is Napster. Do you know what Napster was? Digital music was already there, but new SaaS models, like Spotify, Youtube Music, etc. today is ruling that environment. Again, not finished.. Have you ever heard Craigslist? People were posting rentals, jobs, the whole shebang.. meaning, home and room rentals were already there, but AIRBNB still appeared, no? have you ever heard the founders story? how they got influenced? INFLUENCED? thats your homework. go check it out. hint: craigslist :) Another hilarious part, fudding with UI.. oh, dear. just know how they want to play with perceptions, living in spider web, and still decide on your own. examples, right. uniswap, sushiswap, pancakeswap and tons of other dexs REALLY USE SO DIFFERENT UIs WOW! so they dont use basic token in and out swap card because there are soooo many ways to present a sensible swap? :) instagram, tiktok, yt shorts? no? full screen vertical media with engagement button on the side? no? no? but no? :) amazon? and rest 93842943829423834298432 e-commerce sites? image to title to cart to purchase, almost identical listing, and flow? again, no? :) okay and the last one.. coinbase, kraken and binance. maybe they are structurally similar too, because order books, charts, balances, and what not have natural places to go? but really. one thing. Samsung, after Apple? no? :) take good care of yourself, and your family. all the best.

    @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.

    @YahooCare I've just gotten out of the DM chat and am very disappointed in the service I received. The chat rep tried blaming the Yahoo Mail desktop error on an inactive 2FA mobile number yet told me that my 'only' option was the mobile app. The rep is refeencing the same device

    @YahooCare @yahoomail New Busi Mail web interface has two problems (1) Printing emails cuts off the right edges/full message doesn't print (2) The Inbox defaults to "Primary." I'd like it to default to "All" so I don't miss messages. + your "contact us" button don't send.

    @yahoomail if there’s a problem with generating codes for email recovery you should at least tell your users so that we can switch on to another serious mail service…what’s this madness all about in sending out codes for text messages

    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 @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?

    @maljafeiri @sidrachain Pls I urge the team core to look into the yahoo mail login section ,cause I have not been able to login for some days now. Cause I noticed its alone the google mail this is working to access the sidra app.. And that is the only mail I use to open my sidra app acct .

    @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.

    @sidrachain I can't login with my registered yahoo email, if I use Gmail instead, it directs me to start verification again on a new account, my account has been verified fully, why can't I gain access back into my already existing account? Codes are not been sent to my registered yahoo mail

    Yahoo mail is down and trying to talk to someone on the phone when they ask for a code is impossible since i cannot get into my mail to get access to the code and they do not give the option to send the code to my phone

    @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.

    @EmmanuelAfula @EmmanuelAfula Please look into the Celia App OTP delivery bug! Those of us using Yahoo Mail are completely locked out because the system isn’t sending verification codes to Yahoo now. We need an alternative login option or a way to switch our emails to Gmail. @CeliaWallet 🚨

    Yahoo Mail updated its entire interface, right down to the font, and it's startlingly, uncharacteristically, almost criminally smooth now.

    YAHOO 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.
