What is a good alternative to Yahoo? Want to find a site that is like Yahoo USED to be 15-16 years ago!?

Remember back in the day when Yahoo was cool? When you could create a user profile of yourself complete with brief bio and photo, customize your "My Yahoo" home page, and chat with other Yahoo users whose interests were similar to yours? When Yahoo offered a photo storage service ("Yahoo Pictures") and similar perks? Best of all, when you clicked on Yahoo's main page, it actually featured REAL headline NEWS rather than celebrity gossip, self-important, inane blogposts, and "clickbait?" I am so sick of Yahoo, and desperately want to go elsewhere. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    All-in-one Web portals of that sort are not only merely dead, they're really most sincerely dead.

    I don't have one alternative to Yahoo, but multiple. Google Photos for photo storage (and organization), Google News for news and Discord for chatting, while yes, Discord is mostly meant for gamers it can be used by anyone to discuss almost anything.
