I’ve been using Yahoo Mail the last couple of days, and that shit is so terrible, I had to write this blog post about it.
1. It’s slow as snail — Something is definitely wrong with the javascript engine on yahoo mail. Clicking between folders is significantly laggy and sometimes it just bugs out and won’t load
2. Mail delivery and receiving is not instant — I’ve had mail that did not arrive for over 10 minutes. WTF… I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this on any other mail program I’ve used.
3. The default font is like 7pt. What the hell.
4. Spam filtering is bonkers — They put half of my mail in spam. I keep marking things as not spam, but it doesn’t seem to change anything.
5. Why the fck do they keep asking me to create a public profile?? — This is like that whole G+ fiasco. I just wanted to change the name on my email, but I could not do it until I signed up for their public profile.
Stop using Yahoo Mail. It’s terrible.
