Yahoo webpage (as Home Page upon launch or Home button) Doesn't Load Properly, Frequently Freezes

For years I've used My Yahoo as my homepage when I first launch a browser like Firefox. However Yahoo changed it recently so it goes to a general Yahoo page. Not happy with that as it has way too much information on the page (which may be part of the problem). I can't enter info for Google search. If I try to reload the page there seems to be no response, or after a bit I'll see the spinning wheel. I've had to Force Quit more times than I can count, which also doesn't seem to generate a report for Mozilla each time. I use a VPN (Mullvad) but even if it's switched off the problem persists. I use a MacBook Air with Sequoia 15.1.1 as the OS. I have Firefox set in Troubleshoot mode at the moment and the pages I need, like Google search, work just fine, like they would normally. Still having the problem as of 1-14-25 at 11:30 AM MST.
