Thanks to the brilliant @Rokosun we now have a script that checks all of our apps from tromjaro.com/apps library (our trade free selection) and alerts us when it finds broken packages or those that need to be moved from AUR to repos and such. Brilliant work! This guy is not only brilliant but such a great human. I am so happy he found TROM and me. He is the most active now when it comes to TROM. Helps a lot. Also the other wonderful one, @Alexio who is always helping!! Wonderful beings. #tromlive

TROM Presentation at Atlantykron 2022 videos.trom.tf/w/rToaoUqGZATe2…

@Alexio gave a presentation at atlantykron.org and showcased the many tools that we have.

"The Atlantykron Project is a living experiment of education in nature. The academy brings together world leading experts, the latest learning tools and technologies, and youth from many countries. This combination of teaching, learning and living in a natural and wild environment creates an educational and life experience like no other. "

Unfortunately the presentation is only in the Romanian language. We have added subtitles in different languages but they are auto-translated so they are likely not that great. In any case, the important thing is that Alexio did the presentation. We need more Alexio's!

Anyone can present TROM everywhere they can. This helps us spread the core message of the project, that trade is the source of most problems. And to also showcase the many trade-free tools that we have.

Thank you Alexio!

Today/Tomorrow we will upgrade our TROM.tf and all of its services to the new Debian and Yunohost release. It may take hours and things may not work. Please be aware of that! #tromlive

Do you want to run your own #fediverse instance without having to deal with all the technical jargon of setting up and maintaining servers ?

webape.site is a new service that offers managed #hosting of #mastodon and #peertube instances. They also offer #nextcloud installations and #wordpress websites too. Their price is really cheap compared to other similar services.

You can find them on the fediverse at @webape

TROM.tf updates:

- We've added tasks.trom.tf/ - a complete Trello trade-free alternative.
- We've added sketch.trom.tf/- a simple and useful online sketch whiteboard. Draw together with others and share your drawings.
- We've added another one scratch.trom.tf/ geared towards learning programming and creating animations.
- We moved yt.trom.tf to the original ytb.trom.tf. Do not worry, they are linked so it does not matter which one you use.

As you can see we are adding new trade-free services. Thanks to the people who donate to TROM. Now we have 27 trade-free services that are well maintained. So if you can, please donate to TROM here tromsite.com/donate/ to keep these services alive and relevant, and add more in the future.

We will make some "info" pages for some of these newly added services, soon. Enjoy! #tromlive

Daily reminder that if you are not allowed to live on planet earth, unless you trade for that (your time, energy, skills, attention, etc.) then you are a slave to the trade system. You are as free as an inmate is, bounded by the rules of the prison. Stay furious! #tromlive

Oh nooooo DuckDUckGo is doing shady things and lets Microsoft track you via their Ad Partnership...so shooocked! reviewgeek.com/118915/duckduck…

I kept on saying to people that DDG is a potential risk simply because it engages into TRADES. They wanted you, the user, to click their ads. And all of the "but hey we don't track you at least..." was of course a marketing strategy. Selling their search engine to these "privacy oriented" folks. Privacy-washing. Even tho I was not aware of this practice I was kinda sure they will eventually fuck things up, simply because whenever you engage into trades, sooner or later you will fuck things up.

So yeah, it seems this theory of trade, it being the originator of most problems, still holds very much true. I do not trust any trade-based service. Period. #tromlive

SearX. Our instance is at search.trom.tf/. Also here's a list of trade-free ones directory.trade-free.org/tag/s…

It is basically a browser for their search engine. And yes they do these shady things and more.

Our TROM.tf server's diskspace is getting kinda full. We have a ton of services so this is to be expected. We are trying to be more restrictive with our Peertube instance so that we may be able to remove more content that does not fit the thematic. When we reach 80% diskspace full we will need to do something about it.

#tromlive

We can migrate our Peertube storage to an object storage. Maybe we will do a campaign to raise the funds for that. May be as low as 250 Euros for a year of 2TB storage. That is twice as much as we have for Peertube right now. And we can free up some space on the server for Nextcloud and other services. Right now Peertube takes up about 70% of the storage on the server.

I really enjoyed this new documentary about George Carlin videoneat.com/documentaries/22… - I was waiting for the release for a year now. Carlin, towards the end of this life, started to stab the society more and more, making really good points about the retardation of it all. A few people that I really liked and had an influence on my views are Jacque Fresco, George Carlin, Carl Sagan and Richard Feynman. I 100% recommend this documentary! #tromlive

We re-installed TROMjaro on @Sasha 's laptop. She was using the old Gnome version. All worked great. So smooth. Only 2 errors that were not as important but we fixed them and seem to be related with calamares + BTRFS. This and this.

But yeah. TROMjaro is still maintained and improved. And works great.

Our trade-free operating system. I encourage you to try it too! :) #tromlive

Newly added to the Trade-Free Directory:

Call me crazy but I still think that these morons, all of them, created a very tense situation with the war in Ukraine and it is likely to blow up into something significant.

I predict WW3 in the coming months/years :D .

But hopefully I'm very wrong. I am continuing my work on TROM as usual tho. Despite these thoughts that I have. I, for sure, want to make a TROMcast about the situation and we are trying to invite some people who are close to the conflict. Let's see.
