Yahoo Answers is shutting down on 4 May 2021 (Eastern Time) and the Yahoo Answers website is now in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Am I the only one having an issue with Yahoo Answers not having the "All Categories" column on the left anymore?

I open Yahoo Answers and there is no Category column to chose from. I've found by clicking "details" in the ask a question box and then clicking on "expand" does bring up the category column as it used to be. Just seems strange to me as it suddenly happened three days ago and I haven't noticed anyone else posting about it. Thanks.

    It's the same for everyone. I click a topic on any question, go up to the top, and then down to the one I want, as before. It just takes a bit longer now.

    Everyone is ticked off about it. Did you scroll through this section before posting to see what others were saying?
