I have to remove news every day that fall into the category of those that the rules of this magazine prohibit:

No:
-Orphan crushing machine (good news that barely -or doesn't- compensates the bad news that allows them to exist)
-Good news from a reactionary/capitalist viewpoint
-Conviction or death of an alt-right icon (as their ideology don't die with them)
-Micro-news (news you don't care about when you don't know personally the bunch of nobodies who are involved)
-Denunciation of bad things (by yourself or anyone else)
-News from suspicious or unthrustworthy sources
-Good things with no concretization (yet) (ex.: petitions, protest, political promises, laws not yet passed, call of something,...)
-News with no other purpose than to be fun
-x-washing (pink, green, purple)
-Good news only for people with the same tastes as yours (ex.:release of a movie)
-Off-topic

I hope it's more clear.

I just came across this by sorting by new.
I don't see any rules in the sidebar of !goodnews@kbin.social, so how are people supposed to read them?
