    Yahoo Verizon changed YA's format last Thursday and Friday.. There is no category column on the left side of the page anymore on ANY YA page. left click or tap the category button above the question to get subcategory list then left click or tap " All categories" in the upper left corner to get a category list. Yes it is annoying. Verizon isn't telling us ANYTHING. The YA blog on Tumblr has not been updated since March 7, 2017. Verizon has owned YA for more than 5 months.

    It has happen to everyone.. This is not the first time this has happen. But this is the first time for me. I tried 4 different browsers and all the same. Just have to wait it out. Not much else you can do until the glitch is fit. If it is a glitch or Yahoo is going to keep this. Yahoo has said nothing about this.

    To get to the categories is to bookmark this page: Used this page as a bookmark to all the Categories. /dir/index?sid=... it's the best you can do right now.
