How can something shutdown on the 4th of may 2021 and beginning on 20th of April 2021? It makes no sense do you agree?

The ability to ask new questions ends on the 19th April. The ability to see any of the site at all ends on the 4th May. Not so difficult to understand.

we can only read  it from 20th april,cant comment ..and it will go away 4th may.

~ may the 4th be with you ~ ..we will remember that date for sure 

It makes perfect sense

Someone did a poor job of writing this notice.   

Ummmm....not sure what you don't understand. 

Edit....Yahoo answers will be gone and until then will be in "read only" format. 

They took yours and my voice away right nicely!

I think it makes sense - there are two phases.  On April 20th people will lose the ability to ask or to answer.  On May 4th there will be no y!a site at all
