Yahoo Shuttering 'Messenger'

After 20 years, Yahoo is shuttering its Messenger messaging app. “Yahoo, which was acquired by Verizon in 2017, didn’t give an explanation for shutting its messenger down, but given the sheer amount of already popular messaging apps on the market, it was probably hard to compete with the existing product,” Business Insider reports. “Yahoo Messenger was one of the first instant messaging apps created, but it struggled to keep up with modern apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Snapchat.”
