Social Media Positivity Filter or App

Social Media, Politics and Social IssueKate DoréComment

Idea: A social media app or filter which blocks or limits the amount of negative news stories and negative social media posts you can view, for the sake of your mental health and happiness. Also: it could display a hint/preview of a negative story with the sad details hidden behind a cute puppy photo, in which case you'd have to "click to expand" to see the sad details; the desire to still be shown "funny bad news", such as a 100-car pileup where nobody died; our hatred of "vagueposting" when we're trying to limit our exposure to the news; an idea for a social network that is only about pets and animals; the need for more templates (similar to "reported safe from xxx" or "happy birthday" reminders) to coax/help people post different types of good personal news (for example, to remind people to take a "before" picture for their "weight loss journey" and to store that picture for later, i.e. when they want to announce that their weight loss goal was achieved)
