JP (@JPatts19) reported@Pokemallu @pokemondealsuk I’m the same as you, actively use Yahoo mail and signed up multiple times and followed the advice re not receiving them. Maybe a Yahoo issue. FYI if you go to your contacts on either the app or webpage you can just add the email address.

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?

john Phillips (@oraiders0420) reported@yahoomail you guys need to get your head out your *** and fix this email issue when you try to create a new account and you click on get code by text it says you will get a code on what's app I didn't click that option I clicked on get a text. Wake the hell up and fix the issue

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.

🦁🐮 (@Leobolo___) reportedfrom Yahoo Mail, and most of the information you guys are bringing up is in the public domain. Then again you people are doing like the problem in ADC will move away if Amupitan is gone. But like 2023 this seems like a war to you guys and everything is fair in war
-
Soda (@sodagrrl) reportedI've used @yahoomail for decades, but it's recent changes have made it unusable for me. It's slow, stupid, and ugly. What email provider should I move to, for security and ease of use? I suppose I could go back to my old comcast mail... it's not as bad as @yahoomail is now, although it used to be much worse.
-
Jon Shrimpton (@JonShrimpton) reported@yahoomail @Yahoo Hey there, Yahoo buddies. So, you’re clamping down on available email storage… which is fair enough, but the page to subscribe to get more storage doesn’t work….. which is not fair enough. Pretty please sort out the page or don’t charge for it. Cheers!

MysticUnigon 💚💜 (@MysticUnigon) reported@streamlabs fix your ****! I just want to edit videos, but it makes no sense that I can sign in to livestream and not to do that?! I tried 10 times to have a code sent to my email and nothing! Unless @yahoomail is down, I don't know why you have to make things so complicated!
