Spent all day today adding new apps to our tromjaro trade-free directory...added 61...I still have some 10 more to maybe add. The to schedule them one a day. So you have to understand these are apps that I install and test on tromjaro and make sure they work and are trade-free. I then make an individual page for each. I take screenshots of the apps in tromjaro, add description, link to the source code, and link to the install package. Takes time. Plus keywords...plus making icons...

But yah almost done... I hope to finish it tomorrow so for the next 2 months I won't be bothered much with TROMjaro except with a few releases.

I am adding some 70 new apps to our tromjaro apps library. Some very useful ones. It may take me a day or two. Maybe more!? I make screenshots for them all on tromjaro + add description + install button + more. So takes some time....but I wanted to do this for months now. And since I could not get help with making the icons, I eventually made them myself. After I add them I have to schedule them one a day. That's what I'm doing these days.

I made some TROM II progress today. Figured some ways to make the project open faster and work better. I have split it for the second part. Started the work on the second part too. All good.

I've also made some 50 new icons for new trade-free apps that I'm gonna add to TROMjaro. Tomorrow I will finish them all, around 80 in total. So I can add some 100 or so new trade-free apps to tromjaro. Finally! If I can't find someone to help with the icon making, I'll do it. I realized I'm quite good at that. 50 icons in 2-3 hours.

Productive day. Good job boy Tio! Keep on doin' it! #tromlive

in reply to Tio

and I lived for 5 years in a village with a population of 600 people and there were not much expenses different from urban ones. only in a remote forest village, my family of 5 people and I were able to live for the first year on an income of $ 150 per month. Now, of course, the income is already many times more, but the expenses are minimal: communication, electricity, Internet, products. And that's it))

A new TROMjaro ISO is out with some great changes/improvements. The post is huge - forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-… . New and more modern theme, new Layout Switch with 5 layouts and a fix for the stupid libadwaita. Plus @Future is FOSS made our terminal super duper cool. Tomorrow I won't be home most of the day so I hope all of the release notes are ok, but I doubt....I had way too many things to keep an eye on and take notes about..

Also I changed the TROMjaro.com homepage a bit to reflect the new changes - tromjaro.com/

And the entire website's colors....was difficult. To reflect the new theme because our website and OS are having the same design.

Lots of work today :D. Ok. I love TROMjaro. Bye. #tromlive

I was unable to work on TROM II for the past weeks since Kdenlive doesn't work well anymore. But I work with the developers to find a fix. The project is too big...I will wait a few more days then I will have to see how to get back to it. Maybe I will split the project.

But I did a lot of work for TROMjaro. We will ship the next ISO with a bran new theme. More modern and sleek. And much better adapted for XFCE. Plus we will ship with 4 layouts:

And a graphical layout switcher so you can easily choose between them.

We will also push a fix for the stupidity of libadwaita. We will force the apps that use this library and break the system's consistency, to still use the system's theme. Thanks to @Future is FOSS !

Plus a few other changes. Maybe we will release a new ISO in a few days. I will have to edit the homepage of tromjaro.com to reflect the changes.

What are you doin' gnome!?


I am stuck I can't work on TROM II because Kdenlive refuses to open my project. Waited for more than 10 hours...I will wait more. The Kdenlive team said they improved that and the way to test is to open my massive project with their latest appimage nightly build, then save the project and open again. But 10h in and still doesn't open...I will wait until tomorrow...what can I do!? #tromlive

Trying manyver.se - a neat scuttlebutt client! This is the proper way to go when it comes to connecting people. No servers, peer to peer. Still kinda experimental but that's one social network I am comfortable using 100%. It is me in control all the time. It is the next evolution form the Fediverse. Maybe they could even make the two communicate idk :D. Also, so awesome that in TROMjaro all I have to do to install is search for it in Add/Remove software. And that's how I also get updates...so easy. And people think Linux is difficult or you have to use the terminal. mnot...

@Alexio made an open "pub" so you can get in touch with us. Basically for us to connect to this network you have to either have someone's contact or join a "pub". Here it is trom.club/

A new TROMjaro ISO is out forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-… - and we've added back the Classic layout in a smart way. Anyone can switch between them with a click. Thanks to @Future is FOSS for helping out with this. We may improve it in time, but so far so good. #tromlive

Added to display the title of the playing video for our Smart TV videoneat.com/tv/ + time-stamp and a progress bar. So that you know what documentary is streaming and how far in the documentary it is streaming. Super cool. Maybe we can improve the way the titles are displayed but for now I think this VideoNeat TV is a really great idea! Thanks to @Alexio who inspired this idea! #tromlive

I remember the times when it was a cool idea to rent your computer's power to help the world solve some problems... techradar.com/news/forget-cryp…

But now the idiots are mining a currency with these computers. How telling of our trade-based society. Instead of doing something real and useful in this world, we are tricked by the currency which should, in theory, bring us the valuable things. But it does not. Humans chase the spear that allowed them to hunt and thrive, and collect spears now but don't do anything useful with them. We have more than enough food and stuff to provide for us all. No need for spears or currencies.
