I think Yahoo has shut off comments on all their articles for over two years now. I don't even bother clicking on the "view comments" button anymore. Are you saying they let an article slip through without disabling comments?
Hmm, I didn't know that. I assume there's no way to know except by clicking to view comments?
I gave up after months of just getting the "We've temporarily removed comments to make the world safe for hugs and kisses" blurb every time I clicked. I like how "temporarily" has stretched into years. I just assumed comments were gone and never coming back.
It's just a matter of scrolling down on desktop, but if you're on mobile then yeah that's the only way to know. They actually have been allowing it more often recently, but only on articles no one cares about. As we saw in this case occasionally they allow it on something controversial then shut it down when the comments go against their narrative.
