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 @MrNJ39 Agreed. This version is rubbish. The font is dreadful and is counter intuitive. The previous version was fine. Nothing wrong with it. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. It wasn’t. Please give us the old, good version back.

Adedayo Oluyemisi Adesola (née Adejobi) (@ladydee2024) reportedMost people "fled" from using Yahoo mail once "Yahoo Yahoo" became the moniker for Nigerian internet fraudsters and scammers. Occurred to me recently that I never had a problem with Yahoo and will probably create a Yahoo account again too. Gmail is stressing me out as well, constantly asking me to buy more storage.
