Welcome to WIP! (World In Progress)

What we try to achieve

The goal is simple. We want to inspire people around the world through positivity, as it can be the best motivator. We want people to be happy about our world be celebrating the progress.

It’s the same old story; too many negative news because they “sell”. But we’ll do the opposite, and therefore negative posts are not allowed here and belongs to other communities.

What we don’t see fit for this community

This community is not just a ‘feel good’ community, like if you’re familiar with r/UpliftingNews. These are mostly personal stories, where person A selfishly helps person B in a single event. While this is very good and beautiful, it doesn’t qualify as world progress.

How we start

As a start I will post some news that belongs here, just for an example for new users who will find this community.

Hope you are interested!

    Communities like this one are more important than ever these days, as we drown in an increasingly unending torrent of bad news. It’s important to stay informed about world news of course, but that includes the good news as well. Thank you for creating another positive place on Lemmy. The more there are, the more we can counter the glorification of defeat that is becoming so prevalent in the news and social media.
