For loyal Yahoo! Mail users like myself, this announcement reaffirms Yahoo!'s focus on, and commitment to, their most popular services. I also like the unified experience on all devices.
The CEO's post shows her involvement in these changes. The changes demonstrate her desire to rework the underpinnings of services rather than revamping the user experience for marginal gains. The former infuse the right elements into Yahoo!'s culture; the latter serve as window dressing and don't help to mitigate/fix the underlying issues that have handicapped Yahoo! over the last 5 or so years.
I am looking forward to future updates to Yahoo!'s services.
