I do not like the new format.
The grid of many items on a page is confusing. The previous format with a picture in the left and description to the right was easier to scan and digest.

I’ve been using Yahoo from its inception and will sometimes find changes to the Homepage frustrating at first, but this time, it’s more than frustrating. As this person stated, the format is not intuitive and it takes forever for the page to load. It appears this is related to the advertisements, particularly the primary advertisement on the page.

Completely agree. The new format is awkward and confusing. Please at least allow us access to the previous version.

Whoever designed this homepage needs to stop drinking caffeinated beverages. This new format makes me dizzy. I can only imagine what someone with ADHD must feel like. I hate it!

Garbage, what id10t thought this up or approved it. Guess I will change my home page.

I agree with Carl, above....the classic homepage is easier to scan and doesn't require me to scroll down to see articles because of a big, fat, advertisement at the top of the page!
How do I restore the original homepage?

Why did you change your format? It's God-awful!!! Is somebody trying to justify their position in your company by changing things? Well, whoever is responsible should be fired - the person lacks any sense of what is a user-friendly website design! The former design was much clear, easier to scan, and navigate. Why try to fix something that isn't broken? You did the same thing with Yahoo Mail. You think you need to change things just because you haven't done it in a while. Is that your justification? Shame on you, Yahoo! At least give us the option to stay with the "classic" format, like you did with Yahoo Mail instead of forcing us to stare at the new monstrosity you've created with your homepage!!!!

PLEASE stop screwing around with the homepage!!! I DO NOT LIKE THE NEW VERSION!! In fact, I go to another site to get my dose of news now. I will not use the new version that is frankly, all of the place and doesn't make any kind of sense.

I have no interest in trending news, which is actually a mode of actively rigging what people can access, increasing the statistics for the trending post. I'm interested in new, not trending. For the regular articles, once I( scroll down to that point, it's three huge boxes on the page at a time, not a convenient list to scroll through like it was before. Which is a nasty thing to do with people with disabilities. Your redesign quite frankly abuses people with arthritis, causing us more excruciating pain. Moreover, it just looks like something a kindergartener might design, it's like the website equivalent of ComicSans, all curvy chunky duplo blocks (do those even still exist, they were like giant curvy legos meant for toddlers back in the day). I realize that the trend on all design everywhere seems to be toward that ugly, unsophisticated, infantile design, but I don't quite understand why since I've never met anyone who actually likes it. I'm actually going to be putting Yahoo on siteblock now, and get my news in a more easily navigable, not as biased layout.

It Sucks, I can care less about Hollywood and the celebrities, but that is what is forefront on this page
you should be ashamed of yourself for making that the forefront of your page.
There are more important topics than that
I cannot change the content to put news first. I will be leaving Yahoo as my homepage -

Now I just go to my phone or tablet and see the original.
New finance page sucks too. Yahoo should see how quickly users hit the back to original button. -

Leave the format on the homepage back to the old way. It was easy to read and now I do NOT read the new one I go to microsoft edge.

Make the new Homepage optional, not the former one.
