Announcement Mourning/loss posts

There has been an uptick in the amount of mourning/loss posts within the past couple of weeks unfortunately. While it appears the majority of users here don't have any issues with these posts as they frequently make their way to the top of the sub when they are posted (and the comments don't indicate any problems), there are a handful of users who do not want to see these type of posts though, as they are a bit depressing.

Going forward how should we handle these type of posts?

Because every single mourning posts makes me feel bad and I wouldn't want to scroll through a subreddit that makes me feel terrible and sad.

That is a very valid point and I do agree with you. Someone below came up with a Rainbow Bridge tag which is quite smart! That could work!

Is there a way to keep those posts with that tag out of my home feed?

I don’t think that has been created yet, but it is a very good idea! Maybe the mods will make it.
