Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Yahoo has announced that they're removing many features of Yahoo Groups on December 14 2019
Hi everyone,
I heard yahoo is trimming back, from another set of groups I'm on, so we might need to move to google groups, or something like that, as well as try to save some of our data. I don't know if anyone on this list is good at such things, and could spearhead this.
This is what the moderator said on one of my other groups:
"Yahoo has announced that they are removing many features of Yahoo Groups on December 14 2019 (two months from now), notably including conversations history and uploaded files. Some functions, like uploading new files, will be removed on October 21 (next week)."
"I therefore call on everyone with an interest in this matter to begin the process of evacuating data from our Yahoo groups before the December deadline. This can be done either as part of a Google Group migration or independently. My recommended new storage location is a Google Drive folder. .... we can use a "shared drive" (formerly "team drive") linked to the Google Group for this purpose. Other group data can be stored on an individual user's Drive account in a folder with appropriate access controls set."
Searching news on yahoo this popped up:
