1: The desktop environment is XFCE, not Gnome. my bad. Would love to see an ISO with a pre-configured Tiling Window manager like i3/Sway, awesome, or Xmonad. I'd quickly make the switch to daily drive one of those, because honestly, I really hate writing config files.
2: The out of the box software is pretty solid, especially the customized firefox and VPN. Definitely appreciate the 2 app stores; TROM's own trade-free web app for their curated list of awesome FOSS, and XFCE's add/remove software app for everything else.
3: The pre-enabled AUR, Chaotic AUR, Flatpak, and other repositories. If you can't find the software you are looking for, trade free or not.... I'm convinced it doesn't exist.
4: This distro is seriously quick and snappy. None of the customization done, lags it down. On average today RAM usage was less than 1 gig (out of 8) and CPU load was less than 10%.
Considering I stick with Debian/ Debian based distros, for stability reasons, I'm pleasantly surprised at the amount of effort put in to TROMjaro.
Actually we will add a tilling layout to our Layout Switcher app. It will not be as good as say the ones that are specifically designed for this, since it will be on top of XFCE, but can be a great option. Especially if you can enable/disable with a click of a button.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and I am very happy to read all of that! Tomorrow we should release a new ISO where we will explain some stuff about what we are trying to do with TROMjaro.
Of course that helping human beings it is a good idea. It is astonishing that we even have to have these conversations. All humans should have access to their basic needs (at least) as trade-free.

Notre camarade, militant du mouvement social, a été arrêté hier samedi 6 janvier à 15h30 de manière arbitraire lors d’une action de soutien à la cause Palestinienne. Il a depuis été placé en garde à vue au motif de « participation à un groupement en vue de commettre des violences et des dégradations ». Nous dénonçons cette criminalisation du soutien à la cause palestinienne et plus largement du mouvement social. Nous exigeons la libération immédiate de notre camarade.

Being new to TROM.tf, I decided to check out TROMjaro. This distro is absolutely gorgeous! I booted from a live USB just to check it out, because I've had bad experiences with Manjaro in the past, and it's pretty feature packed. Best of all, "proprietary" software isn't completely blocked because of the trade free views of TROM and nature of the distro, meaning that I can install a couple of pieces software that my life revolves around.
Admittedly, KDE is my favorite and preferred desktop environment but with the look and feel of the tweaks pre-applied to Gnome... I could probably get used to not having KDE pretty quickly.
I'll be prepping to install and making it my daily driver on my laptop for a while. Will update with further thoughts in a week or so.
I typically use Debian or Fedora. Last time I used Manjaro or any other Arch based distro, had serious issues with stability and have pretty much stayed away from them for that reason.
Am happy to hear that. We will release a new ISO today or tomorrow with some new features/changes. You can always follow us here tromjaro.com/follow/ - Fediverse/RSS.

This photo looks fake, but it is not, and it is taken with a mobile phone. Plus I did no editing:
