    This might break rule b) and I don’t find it uplifting (a bit orphancrushingmachine when you think about it, even) but I don’t think there’s much use in deleting this at this point.

      Thank you for the reasonable take. Clearly it resonated with people. I think that’s the way to moderate- even if it isn’t a perfect fit, if enough people on the sub feels like it is, it’s reasonable to let it be, in my opinion.

        I would’ve removed the post if I saw it before it gained traction. The thing with these things is people usually upvote them because they see it at !all instead of thinking it fits !upliftingnews, and too much of these posts can dilute the quality of our community and drive away users who wanted the specific thing we’re looking for.
