  2. News items stay in order, while looking at them.

    It was so great this morning that when I looked at a news items that it didn't click onto another news item while I was looking at the first one. When I went back, the original one was still there so I could look at them all in order. Now it has gone back to the old way, why?

  3. Favorites

    CompuServe Gold- There are 2 favorites buttons. There is 1 in between Write Mail and Settings. The other one is next to the search bar. 1 of them can be removed. 2 is a little bit superfluous. If there should be a second Favorites button, it should be as a menu dropdown for example "File, Edit, Favorites, etc." like Internet Explorer used to have. Other than that, the program is great.

  4. mail

    AOL Gold Mail - you've changed the access to cc: and bcc: in write mail. Please restore the version that displays the cc: always WITHOUT requiring the click on th elittle (little seen) box at the upper right of "write mail".

    It would be VERY HELPFUL if AOL would send a "Heads-Up_ to users when feature changes are made. As is we have to stumble across or Search for them on our own. Be more Customer Sensitive.

  6. Stop adding USELESS features to the bottom of the home screen like boxes with stocks, weather, etc.

    Instead of adding boxes that clutter up the bottom of the home screen that users may not even want, why don't you spend your time bringing back USEFUL features like being able to see the entire email address of senders in mail when you put the cursor over it. That was one of the most helpful features that AOL used to have. How do I get rid of those ugly, useless boxes with weather, stocks, etc.?

  7. Diabetes Application Recall

    AOL editors chose to place a critical recall notice relating to the failure of a diabetes related app as 74 of 75 news items. The sudden failure could lead to death through over supply of insulin.

    How could it not be the first item? Does the profit motive at AOL come before the life of its subscribers?

  9. Update look

    AOL has been out for many years and pretty much looks the same. AOL Desktop Gold needs a new updated look, make it look like something from 2024, not 2010.

  13. Your algorithm for screening comments still needs work and could benefit from AI!

    I've gone through several screenings for words I've used in comments! The word or words that caused rejection or challenging were in no way used offensively nor were the word or words in question made known to me. I'm keenly aware and support efforts to try and keep comments constructive. But your words have no value to me when I see others verbally attacking others (this time me) without the sensitivity you seek. I see lots of hateful language but not necessarily an offensive word. So your algorithm is useless for hateful sentencing and offensive and wrongly constricting when comments…

  18. Have any of you at AOL even tried reading an article?? Impossible to do, with all the ads covering the content of the article.

    Have any of you at AOL even tried reading an article?? Impossible to do, with all the ads covering the content of the article. There are only small bits of written material between the ads -- just a couple of lines between the ads.
