A few weeks ago, I had this feeling I just couldn't shake. Every time I opened the news, I felt a little worse. Not because the world is only bad - I genuinely don't believe that - but because bad news travels so much faster and louder than good news. It's just how the algorithms work.
So I built something. It's called positron.today, and the idea is wonderfully simple: a curated daily feed of positive news from around the world. No drama, no outrage, no clickbait. Just good things happening - from a new sea eagle hatching in Diksmuide to the Artemis II crew safely splashing down in the Pacific. Big stories and small ones. Local and global.
It works in English, Dutch, and French. You can filter by topic - animals, science, sports, environment, arts, whatever makes you smile. And it updates every day.
I'm not pretending the world's problems don't exist. But I do think we've gotten a little addicted to the negative, and I wanted to offer an antidote. Something you can open in the morning and actually feel a bit better afterwards.
Give it a try. Bookmark it. Share it with someone who needs it.
Cheers,
Rik
