Problem with Bell Icon Notification for Likes and/or Replies on News Article Comments
There's been an ongoing issue, of late, with the Bell Icon notifications for "Likes" and/or "Replies" to comments made on AOL's news articles. The number will momentarily appear above the icon, but when you click on it...NOTHING new (bold print) in the pop-up list of notifications. In order to discern what was said, had to go to account listings and GUESS at what article I commented on. Why, you ask? Because there's also a glitch with the word POSTED not appearing (which won't permit you to click & go automatically to your comment). Nor is there a pic or headline…

Improve Article Comments Notifications... not working
Article comments notifications NOT working for a week now. The icon shows notifications are there but when the icon is clicked to see notifications, nothing shows up. Why have a comment section is readers cannot participate in discussions. Will someone fix this already.

Technical issues within articles
Notifications not working in the article section for several days. It doesn't seem anyone is addressing the issue. What is the point of the comment section if one cannot interact?

Fix the problem with the Comments section
I'm currently having a problem accessing the Comments. Signed into AOL on Microsoft Edge and couldn't pull up Comments there either. AOL's live chat was no help, nor was calling them directly. They said the only way for an IT Tech to see if this even warrants their attention is to read a post on this Feedback. And when you first submit the feedback, it winds up really low on the totem pole (somewhere in the thousands).

Improve performance of the Ads shown on AOL pages by using image-only vs interactive videos - they are resource hogs
The interactive video ads are resource hogs and cause perpetual Wait messages or total non-response and page and computer lock-up. I need to constantly run the optimization utility to free up space or, when totally locked-up, force machine crash-type shut down of my computer and the reboot. This is not at all anything remotely close to being but user-friendly.

Fix the rejection issue that I am experiencing
All my posts are rejected, when I appeal, my appeals are denied. My posts are respectful, truthful, and verifiable with no curse words or misspelled words. When I reported the issue to you customer service via chat, they sent me to this feedback forum to fix the issue. It is very annoying and as a dues paying customer, if it is not addressed soon, I will stop paying for my AOL service. I can get bad service for free.

Notifications not working in articles
In AOL articles, my notifications are showing I have notifications but when I click on the icon I get a message saying, "No Notifications Yet - start interacting with others and your inbox will be full in no time" This has been going on for 2 days. This is not the first time this has happened. Why does this happen and how can it be fixed?

Yahoo comments is doing Digg v4 in 2026.
Yahoo comments has rolled out a new version that is unpopular with users myself included. This is exactly what happened with Digg before Reddit. Digg's v4 update became so unpopular with users it killed their dominance and now is an after thought. If AOL improves their comments format some you could swoop all those users. Most people click Yahoo news articles for the comments section, now that experience sucks. Make a better alternative your format is not that bad just some simple improvements and let the users express themself and you will be getting far more clicks everyday.

Local News Section
A majority of the links to the local news links [in my area, Sun News Papers] require a subscription to view the articles. If I wanted to subscribe to multiple news local outlets I would have done so. Please stop providing links to articles most people will be unable to read.

Why are you not letting comments to be written about news stories. I haven't been able to for months. Sick and tired of you blocking me.

Suggestive and sexually provocative advertising
On the AOL home page, please delete your ads like Koreadates, or any other company that is soliciting dates/services related to the marketing of young women or men. It is not appropriate and some of the photos are provocative and too sexually suggestive. They should not be included in the news page.

Pop-up notifications no longer available when someone "likes" or "replies" to your Comment
Have already spoken to Tech Support about this issue; but was informed they don't have the capability of correcting this issue. It would have to be submitted on this Feedback feature. These pop-ups help by allowing you to go to notifications and read replies or see "likes" to your comments. Although the Bell Notification feature works, the pop-ups assist users during real time activities.
If other customers don't care for this feature, it would behoove AOL's IT gurus to provide an option to toggle the pop-up feature on and off.

Unable To Leave Comments
I am unable to comment on articles on the AOL carousel for 72 hours now. The comment button at the end of a news article turns gray when I click on it instead of opening comments and a comment box. Hope you can fix.
