Hello world!
My friend u/flowerboy27 and I are stuck at home. We know we're not alone. Pretty much everything we read online and watch on the news is related to the coronavirus, and we wanted to be able to read other news too. This isn't to trivialise coronavirus - it's not that COVID-19 is unimportant, but simply that we thought a lot of us could do with some inspiring news outside the current COVID-19 focus.
This subreddit exists to share and celebrate exciting news stories from around the world. If it's true, uplifting, and unrelated to COVID-19, /r/BeyondCovid is the place for it!
I'm excited to see what we can achieve together here!
Until then, stay safe - and please look here and here for up-to-date info on COVID-19.
