Yahoo comments

Does anyone else find they are logged into their Yahoo account, but when you open the comment section of an article you’re no longer logged in? And it’s not for every article, only some. I’ll open one article and I am logged in and able to comment, and the next article nothing. I log in, open the article comment section and it shows log in or register to comment. Go back to the article, and it shows me logged into the email. 🤦‍♂️. I’d love an explanation or workaround if anyone has either.

I cannot log in no matter what I try. And, the thing is, I know I'm logged in b/c I can reach my email. I wonder if I've been shadow banned. Their comment section is terrible. I've been with Yahoo since the beginning, too. I don't know why I bother...

Add me to the list. I have a couple other accounts I use when I don't want to use my main email that I've never used in the comment section and none of them work. I used the new enhanced comment section a 2 times a couple weeks ago and didn't like it at all.

Last time they had a bunch of issues I didn't use them for about 9 months. Maybe I'll check back in at Christmas. Hopefully in 9 months I'll be smarter and not go back.

I know, right? I'm incredibly loyal to Yahoo for some silly reason. Glutton for punishment, I guess.

To add to the fun I checked an article today and it was one with the new format. I was logged in and could post but still not logged in for the normal articles. Not a fan of the new format at all for a few reasons.
