Holly Hocker (ID: 000000daf065f04d) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/24/2021 Great app. Provides a seamless way of commenting and rating articles while browsing content on Yahoo. Did not require any personal data to make an account, which was very welcoming. No ads either. I'd like to see this done for all sites that have no comment boards.
