New Weather Screen Format Sucks!
Well AOL, you messed up yet another page. The weather page sucks now. You chose to throw in a huge ad/commercial box, while decreasing the size of the weather box!
We come to the weather page to see the WEATHER, NOT ADS! Make it so you don't have to increase the page size to actually SEE what the screen is supposed to actually be about.
The weather should be the focus of the page, not the advertising, contrary to what your marketing department says!!

Improving Linux compatibility of installer with latest Beta versions (.net 4.8 won't install)
Hello everyone from Germany,
AOL was my first ISP back in 1998 and I thought of what has become of this old classic.
I learned about the Beta site and thought I'd give it a try on Linux using wine (wine is not an emulator).
Unfortunately the installer crashed right away when it was trying to install .net 4.8.
I posted the following but for this

Change to new email signature, with previous version of AOL Mail.
I use an older version of AOL Mail. I have an e-mall signature with this version. I want to change to another signature, but it appears I must first "sign-up" with AOL Gold and pay a monthly fee. Really? I have had an e-mail signature for years with the older version without a fee, but now, if I want to change to another "signature", that will involve a monthly charge, really? This isn't critical, but it is important for enjoying my email experience. Thanks, but no thanks.

aol desktop gold writing to hard drive
Looking at the disk activity under resource monitor, under task manager, I can confirm that aoldesktop.exe is writing to the hard drive.
What is the software doing? It'd be great to get more info about what is going on exactly. The only theory that I have is that the software makes a backup so in the event that the browser crashed, having a the browser recover your info would seem like a good idea.
I think aol 9.8 had this and most browsers do. There should be an option to customize aol desktop gold writing to a hard drive.
