Welcome!

Please avoid posting news stories that have a silver lining as while a happy/amazing thing happened, it came out of a sad/depressing situation.

Additionally, if you would like to share news with us, please be descriptive about it. Self posts are allowed on the basis that it is a truly happy event and put effort into writing it. Short or vague self posts will be removed as this dilutes the feed.

Share a story! - Post about what makes you warm and fuzzy inside, we encourage everyone to share a story about their happiness.

Please do not post memes they have their own subreddit. Instead of posting a meme photo, share a story!

NOTE Do not be offensive, be respectful to all users.

r/happy Rules

No Silver Lining Stories

Stories that are rooted in a negative situation with a minor positive outcome are not allowed. Stories about conquering your fears/challenges on the other hand are allowed.

No shaming/negative comments

Comments which are negative in nature or shaming the OP are not allowed.

No reposts without attribution

Content which is blatantly stolen/reposted without reattribution (in particular content created but reddit users) will be removed. Depending on the severity (i.e user is a known reposter) a temporary ban shall be given.

No vague posts

Submissions that are a one liner such as "She makes me happy" or "I love my kids/dogs/tree/foot" will removed. The intent is to share stories, we don't expect an essay but a description of why this picture is special to you. Text posts are even better if you feel the need to elaborate.

No meme posts

Low effort content such as posting memes (even with a positive message) will be removed.

Shameless self-promotion is not allowed

If you want to share a site or channel you created message the mods first.

No AI content

We do not allow AI content of any kind on the subreddit

Personal stories only

Members may share only their own personal experiences, stories, and firsthand accounts. Do not post stories about other people or relay someone else’s experiences as your own.

No motivational quotes

Do not post motivational quotes by themselves.

No engagement baiting

Generic personal-question threads (“What makes you happy?”, “When was the last time you smiled?”, etc.) are not permitted. Keep posts relevant to the purpose of the community.
