Has Yahoo heard (not just) our pleas?

Has Yahoo heard (not just) our pleas?

I logged into groups.yahoo.com and noticed that we have our old forum format back.

Is everyone else seeing the same thing?

Woohoo! A bit of good news today.

Nope - still on the appalling new forum. Which is only marginally better than the previous even more appalling format. Until this gets onto a message-board style forum, it's really unmanageable.

Carol responds:

I think the old format, though it had problems, was far better than the ghastly format we have now. I signed out and back in hoping that it had indeed changed back, but no such luck.

Yahoo clearly has not heard our gripes or pleas. (Neither did Google, which dropped the very convenient iGoogle on the absurd theory that "everyone" now has "mobile devices" and doesn't need it. Wrong! My cell phone is a cell phone--no texting, no apps--and my computer is a PC. And I'm happy that way if the rich moguls who control our postmodern world (let's add in Microsoft while we're at it) would just let well enough alone.

I wonder if it's dependent on how one accesses the forum?

I just got a new smartphone and it is showing the old forum setup, without the visual non sequitur of the Tibetan demon. Yet when I access the forum via my home computer the new format, complete with demon, appears.
