    I am not Happy with It Either but we just have to Deal with it and Learn how to find things all over again

    Hopefully Yahoo will Fix it and will make it Easier to find things

    Verizon is either updating computer programs or beta testing new formats and layouts prior to starting the re-branding - This is happening on many browsers and operating systems. They Verizon changed the format while my computer was doing the daily cache cleaning, I was logged out of my PC and the computer turned off.. We were KIND of forewarned that this would happen in April, that Verizon and AOL would eventually repbrand everything to Oath before the sale of Yahoo to Verizon became final in June.

    if you have opened question left click or tap the Category then when you get the csub gategory list left click or tap the All Categories.. some people are sayingt hit Customize or feed hyperlink or Settings icon in the header. apparently they do not realize many of us NO LONGER have subcagetogry or category list AS header Or customize feed hyperlink or Settings icon above the question or question list.. and many of don't have the tab settings customized yet..

    Verizon isn't telling us ANYTHING. The YA blog on Tumblr has not been updated since march, 7, 2017. Tumblr is dying.

    Watch the CNBC interview video in this article:

    Yes, Change IS ALWAYS annoying, but eventually you work out how to navigate YA all over again. i hope they have just taken SOME computer programs offline to UPDATE them and FIX some of the eternal glitches..Verizon is NOT REQUIRED by law to tell us ANYTHING.

    It has also happen to me today. This is not the first time this has happen. But this is the first time for me. I tried 4 different browsers and all the same. Just have to wait it out. Not much else you can do until the glitch is fit. If it is a glitch or Yahoo is going to keep this. Yahoo has said nothing about this.

    To get to the categories is to bookmark this page: Used this page as a bookmark to all the Categories. https://answers.yahoo.com/dir/index?sid=... it's the best you can do right now.

    I don't know. The only real things I notice is more questions and answers are getting deleted and, my background on my profile for some reason looks like something you'd see on gay pride day.
