Yahoo has decided that they know what is best for me, and it is really awful because yahoo is deranged! What makes yahoo think I would enjoy their little tracker to let me know if I have reached my "email goals"? Could you get any more annoying? Yes, you could. Could you possibly ask me about my location more often? I think if you put some wellie into it you might be able to get it to once every 10 minutes. I think you have mistaken me suddenly for someone else, I am someone who used yahoo as a semi reliable free email, not a social media addict with a real need to be reminded every few minutes how awful you have become. You know the best part? I love how you open windows every few minutes while I am trying to reach my 'email goals', and then won't let me close them. This is it, I have had it with you and would rather pay for decent service than get this trash for free. I am embarrassed that I have to say 'yahoo.com' when asked for my email.

Yeah, that sounds exhausting and honestly a bit insulting. You just want email, not a nagging roommate. Go into Yahoo Settings, then Privacy and Notifications, and kill the email goals, location prompts, and popups there. Install an ad blocker for the windows that refuse to close. Then use Yahoo's Privacy Dashboard to download your whole mailbox and move to a paid provider like Fastmail or Proton. You are allowed to outgrow a free service that stopped respecting you.
