More Details: We confront Yukawa modified cosmology, proposed in arXiv:2304.11492 [Jusufi et al. arXiv:2304.11492], with data from Supernovae Type Ia (SNe Ia) and Hubble parameter (OHD) observations. Yukawa cosmology is obtained from a Yukawa-like gravitational potential, with coupling parameter $\alpha$ and wavelength parameter $\lambda$, which gives rise to modified Friedmann equations. We show that the agreement with observations is very efficient, and within $1\sigma$ confidence level we find the best-fit parameters $\lambda=\left(2693_{-1262}^{+1191}\right)\, \rm Mpc$, $\alpha=0.416_{-0.326}^{+1.137}$, and a graviton mass of $m_{g}=\left(2.374_{-0.728}^{+2.095}\right)\times 10^{-42}\, \text{GeV}$. Additionally, we establish a connection between the effective dark matter and dark energy density parameters and the angular radius of the black hole shadow of the SgrA and M87 black holes in the low-redshift limit, consistent with the Event Horizon Telescope findings.
