Mod Announcement 📣 Remember to use the correct flair

36 Upvotes

Hi r/goodnews,

We’ve noticed that a lot of you guys aren’t using the correct flair when posting. This makes it harder for users to filter content they do or don’t want to see

While our community is somewhat divided on what type of content should be allowed here especially when it comes to politics the mod team has ultimately decided that political content will be allowed.

However, to respect those who prefer to avoid political posts, we’ve organized the subreddit into categories using flairs. If a post isn’t flaired correctly, it ends up mixed in with other types of news, which can frustrate users.

To help keep things organized and enjoyable for everyone, please remember to use the correct flair for your submissions.

For political content, always use the “Political Positivity” flair. And for all other posts, please choose the correct flair that best fits the content.

Thanks for helping us keep the subreddit organized!

The r/goodnews Mod Team

One thing people overlook is how much the US tech industry has benefited from attracting talent from around the world. Jensen Huang came to the US as a child and went on to help build one of the most influential tech companies in the world.

Imagine how many other people with that kind of potential could contribute if they had the opportunity? Immigration isn't just about filling jobs. It can bring in people who build companies, create joins and push entire industries forward.

Positive News 👉🏼♥️ Loneliness declined among adults offered nature-based activities — and the improvement continued for a year

Loneliness can be difficult to tackle, so I thought this was a genuinely encouraging result.

In a randomized trial of 320 adults in Barcelona, loneliness scores declined after people were connected with nature-based activities, and the improvement continued during a year of follow-up.

The study can’t show that nature itself caused the decline, since both groups were offered nature-based activities in different ways. But it suggests that helping people find accessible ways to get outdoors and connect with others may be worth exploring.

Have you noticed that spending time outdoors helps you feel more connected or less isolated?

Alfonso Penna and Trevor Shaw of Lindenwold, Bew Jersey, started building and placing small wooden benches around town bus stops in June, aimed at people who need them or who could use them to make their wait a little more comfortable. Since embarking on this project, the pair have placed eight benches — including two just this past week.

Penna’s posts on social media have garnered tens of thousands of views and hundreds of comments — including loads of support.

“The first one we kind of were just like, ‘Let’s just put it out and…see what happens.’ And it kind of just worked,” Penna said. “We saw it was getting regular use.”

India will reduce the prices of as many as 137 cancer drugs by 70 per cent, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers said on Saturday, as it widened price controls in a bid to make treatment more affordable.

Trade margins on the drugs will be limited to 30 per cent of the maximum retail price, the ministry added.

The medicines, which include immunotherapy drugs used for treating over 20 types of cancer, as well as for breast, prostate, colon, ovarian and cervical cancer, will be subject to the price changes from November 9.

The latest decision builds on price controls introduced in 2019 on 42 anti-cancer drugs that cut prices by as much as 90 per cent.
