When Facebook proclaims to be a place for people to stay in touch with their friends and families, connect with others and such, it is like a Mall pretending it is not a shopping center, but a place where friends and families can meet and greet. Just because Malls have added some benches, trees, and playgrounds for kids, it does not make them a communal place for people to meet others, relax, and have a fun time. They are still shopping centers and all they want is for you to consume their products. To trade your currency for their stuff.

Similarly, Facebook is a place where you trade your data/attention/currency to them - it is an ad platform - regardless if they added "benches and trees", or messengers, photo albums and a comment section for posts. They still are an ad platform.

Don't be fooled!

Malls are shopping centers, and Facebook is an ad (trade) platform, together with youtube, twitter, tiktok, google search and pretty much all websites nowadays.

So, fuck them. Use tromsite.com/tools/ for your own sanity. #tromlive

Our latest TROMCast about deplatforming can be watched here videos.trom.tf/videos/watch/38… or here tromsite.com/videos/ . It got suddenly interrupted at 1:30 , we do not know why, maybe my (Tio) internet connection dropped for a second. We recorded a second part and merged them all in one single video. Enjoy! #tromlive

We will go live in 1h and a half, here tromsite.com/live/ and anyone can participate. The subject: deplatformed. We will talk about how big companies have the power to silence anyone and what to do about it. #tromlive


Two more applications added to our trom.tf/ - but both are under "The following may not work properly, or are not fully trade-free:". So please be aware of that. We added Wallabag as bag.trom.tf and Framaforms as forms.trom.tf.

Right now we provide 18 trade-free services! 12 work perfectly fine. 1 is not customized. and 5 are mostly not properly customized/configured or are not very stable. #tromlive

Tomorrow, a new TROM-Cast live here tromsite.com/live/

We are talking about this new word "deplatforming" and what are the implications of it. How a few companies can mute anyone they want, and what repercussions does it have.

Anyone can participate via chat or video/audio. The info links will be posted on our live-chat a few minutes before or after the live will begin. If you want to follow us directly on Peertube see this link videos.trom.tf/videos/watch/10…

See you there! #tromlive

We have a new trade-free service available for trom.tf/ ! It is a meme-maker.

A simple tool that allows you to create “memes”. Add text, background images, change colors, font types, save them in the browser or on your computer. meme.trom.tf/ #tromlive

We want to release a trade-free alternative to Unsplash, videoblocks and the like. A huge gallery of free to use videos and photos. We have tested it and so far so great, but for now it will be invitation-only so if there is any of you out there who is passionate about taking photos or making videos, please tell us so we can give you access. All that we will upload there will be free to use for any purposes: trade-free in other words. So, there is your chance to make things just a little better in this world, by taking interesting photos and adding them to our Trade-Free Media directory ;). #tromlive

By the way there is no link to the documentary anywhere in that post :)
in reply to Alexander

Ah true. But is on the poster itself :). Thanks for the heads-up I may fix it!



We tweaked a bit our Quiz tromsite.com/quiz/ - enjoy it! Whenever we will have more time, we will add more questions to it. #tromlive
