Yahoo! has officially called in the bankers to explore "strategic alternatives" for the company; in other words trying to find someone to buy up the non-Alibaba side of the business.
Internet pioneers Yahoo and AOL are changing hands yet again as Verizon is selling its Verizon Media branch for about $5 billion

If you're buying a Samsung Galaxy S9 or S9+ from Verizon, expect to see Yahoo-based apps and Bixby news content on your devices in the near future.
Only stupid people buy phones on plans anyway, so this is right up their alley.
Buy CLEAN phone crapware-free for $500 now, or pay $3,000 for crapware-filled phone over 2 years...
Hmm hard decisions...
In my opinion, Microsoft will buy Yahoo and merge with Bing :D
Yahoo can go away, for good. They have not been relevant since like forever. The only interaction I ever have with yahoo is sometimes stumbling upon the mess that is 'yahoo answers' if you dont know what that is consider yourself lucky. Its basically idiots asking other idiots questions its hilarious to read but also sad at the same time.
Anyway I know some people still use their mail service and I cant understand why. Its a parody of a poor mans gmail you might as well be using hotmail is a non ironic way.
Nooooooo, yahoo groups, don't go away, come back !
So long as the moderator's good, you can have a decent experience with 'groups'
Probably Google will buy them.
Flickr is pretty much the only good yahoo service left. Their email is fine I guess, but it's not like there aren't other good choices.
I'm not sure who I'd trust not to screw up Flickr.. Hmm. I'm actually surprised Yahoo didn't mess it up themselves.
