What are the benefits of using those sites?
I’ve heard Yahoo! is good for stock market trading and financial news, but haven’t heard anything else about any of them.
I still use Hotmail because I have a billion accounts linked to it and can’t be arsed to change the address.
Same
Yahoo is my trash e-mail account. Any subscriptions or accounts that I don’t really care about, or know will generate lots of spam, go on yahoo.
Meh, I don’t particularly use it anymore, but I’ve had my Yahoo account for over 20 years, before GMail even existed. My account there still works, but I gave up on actually using them after they shut down Yahoo Groups.
My username on Yahoo is the same as here on Lemmy. Feel free to email me, I’ll promptly never check my email LOL!
Don’t some of those services delete your account after a couple years of non-usage?
Apparently not Yahoo, I had actually forgot my changed password for like 7 years, then once I finally remembered the answer to my custom recovery question, I found the account was still up 👍
I do actually check it every few months or so, spam spam spam…
When I hear somebody who has a Yahoo account, I kind of look at them funny and do not send them anything that’s important because if they are likely to use Yahoo, then they probably don’t have very good security practices.
Why not?
