Our Peertube instance (the youtube trade-free alternative) supports automatic video imports videos.trom.tf - meaning you can select your youtube, vimeo and so forth channels, and it will auto-sync with your peertube. The video, description, tags, and so forth will be auto-uploaded. How awesome!

We've also limited the resolution to Full HD as maximum. Everything else makes little to no sense and it is usually an overkill unless you have a huge screen that supports 2k or 4k native resolutions. We are also limited in terms of disk space...so it makes no sense to allow 3 minute 4k uploads that are 1GB. That's insanity.

Anyway, feel free to use our instance. We provide unlimited uploads. #tromlive

A very important TROMjaro Release forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-…

We worked a lot to make it so much easier from now on to keep your TROMjaro updated without making manual changes like you had to do before. This is mostly thanks to the wonderful @Roma and @Rokosun who did a wonderful job.

ENJOY! #tromlive

TROMjaro 2022.09.23

This is a really important release because it makes everything so much easier for all TROMjaro users and for us.

^{TROMjaro Forum}

We are getting closer and closer to releasing a new TROMjaro ISO that will come with some really useful features for every TROMjaro user. In short, the changes we usually recommend for people to do (most of them at least) for each of our release, will be now pushed by us to everyone automatically. Thanks to @Roma and @Rokosun for the great work they've done for these past days.

As soon as we release this new TROMjaro ISO, the focus will shift once again on the TROM II documentary.

TROM is alive. And it has been since 2011. And we will continue to be. We plan a new TROM Meeting for the next year. We will let you know more details towards the end of this year. #tromlive

Tio:
The wonderful Roma (a very special TROM-friend) is visiting us.

We achieved a wonderful synchronization for theming. Basically now the theme, the icon pack, and the font sync across apps: GTK, GTK+Libadwaita, QT, QT5, QT6, flatpaks that accept theming. So awesome!

But the best part is that we can now improve these packages and push updates automatically to all users. Stay tuned for the release! And thank you Roma for being such a good human. A true human being :). #tromlive

Activists today throw seeds on cement. And they expect flowers to bloom. It cannot. We need a fertile soil first!

We need to provide humans with their basic needs as trade-free so they can bloom. So they can have the time to get involved, choose what to focus on, relax, have time to be educated and educate.

Nothing will work unless we do that.

TROM is trying hard to create a fertile soil, granted only in the digital world (for now). We provide books, videos, documentaries, software, services...a lot to create a fertile soil, to then plant some seeds.

Currently the following websites have been "fixed" for mobile screens, so that they look ok on these tiny devices:

- tromsite.com/
- tromnews.com/
- videoneat.com/
- tromjaro.com/
- trom.tf/ (but not the individual services)
- trade-free.org/ and directory.trade-free.org/

We mainly have to fix our TROM.tf services, individually....that could take some time... #tromlive

According to the-federation.info/friendica our social.trom.tf Friendica instance, is the 7th Friendica instance in terms of total users, and the 3rd in terms of monthly active users.

That's great! We are only one and a half years old or so. We will continue to grow and overall Friendica gained almost double the users in the past year.

It is still a drop in the ocean, but adds to the big fediverse network. Happy to see that. Please join us! #tromlive

Why Eco Products aren't Climate Friendly ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=Izxcpn4JEZ…

Exactly.

Why Eco Products aren't Climate Friendly

Wherever we go we're being advertised stuff. Whether it's fast fashion or the latest eco product, buying things is meant to be the solution to everything.

We are integrating a few things into the new TROMjaro release:

Our Trade-Free Library of apps. We are adding it as a webapp.

VideoNeat - fast access to hundreds and hundreds of quality documentaries and courses.

On top of this we are adding to the Documents folder a PDF about our Trade-Free initiative.

Beyond Orwell ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=tTgH_-ohys…

Very well made video. Highly recommend. It is missing something tho.....to understand that the structure of this system, globally, is based on trade. As simple and as idiotic as that. The new religion: trade. This is where TROM brings something new to the table, and very important. #tromlive

Beyond Orwell

We are in a much better financial situation than we've been in the past years, thanks to some big donations these past months and our ability to work (trade ourselves) to make some money. However, this is just to buy us time to focus on TROM and its so many projects. And things may change the next months, we may have to move to a new hosting provider that could be twice as expensive. We will have to pay the yearly backups for borgbase.com and megasync, and so forth.

Therefore any donation that we will get, will go towards such things and "buying" us more time for these projects.

Thank you to those who have always supported TROM via donations. We do not sell anything, or treat anyone differently. TROM is what it is. With its plenty-of-services available as trade-free for everyone.

We are removing bag.trom.tf (wallabag) from our services. We do not use it much at all, and recently no one could register - the registration confirmation email cannot be sent (see).

We do not have the time to fix or maintain this. It was one of the few services that we were unsure of from the get-go. It will still be around for months to come, but no new registrations are possible and we removed it from the front page. #tromlive

TROMjaro: Trade-Free means you do what you like videos.trom.tf/w/qNgxvDCXxWHxA…

A video we made 2 years ago, but still relevant today. We moved from Gnome to XFCE since then, so even more freedom! :)
