That's possible, but it's tough to say what kind of effect this will have on them. Humans didn't evolve in an environment that had the internet, and social media increases exposure to both the good and bad sides of life more than ever before. The issue is that humans respond more to negative emotions than positive ones, driving depression and suicide rates up.
I think the jury's still out on apps like this that try to foster a positive emotional environment while limiting the negative.
If faux positivity was bad for us, then sites like 4chan would foster a good mental status. I think it should be obvious that it doesn't.
