The fact that I/we use many of our trom.tf services, makes it a lot more reliable. I keep an eye on these services and I am in need for them to work all the time.

• social.trom.tf/ using it daily. It is my main social network
• files.trom.tf/ I do not really use it, but I use the same Nextcloud install and kinda the same setup for our drive.tromsite.com, so I kinda know it works well
• videos.trom.tf/ it is our main video platform
• maps.trom.tf/ use it daily to keep track on where @Sasha is :)
• office.trom.tf/ not using it much, only when I need to create a quick document and share with others, but I test it quite often
• notes.trom.tf/ I use it daily as my main notes taking app
• search.trom.tf/ I use it daily as my main search engine and boy o boy do I search!? haha
• send.trom.tf/ I use it from time to time
• rss.trom.tf/ Use it daily and in abundance for our tromnews.com + some social.trom.tf contacts I have generated RSS links for
• bag.trom.tf/ This one is true I do not use...
• diagrams.trom.tf/ Also not using it...
• poll.trom.tf/ I do use it when I need to create a poll
• speed.trom.tf/ From time to time
• qr.trom.tf/ Never haha
• meme.trom.tf/ Not really but I may use it in the near future to create TROM memes
• check.trom.tf/ Rarely...
• bird.trom.tf/ All the time to pull RSS feeds for a bunch of Twitter accounts I follow on TROMsocial
• ytb.trom.tf/ Every day....it is my main way of watching Youtube. Without this I would not watch youtube honestly. And we plan to replace all youtube links from our tromnews.com with RSS ones from our Invidious instance
• insta.trom.tf/ Daily use for tromnews.com Illustrations

So yah I use most of them. I hope others take advantage of these tools at least 25% as much as I do :P. #tromlive

I finally managed to release a new TROMjaro ISO with Dash to Panel instead of Dash to Dock. Info here tromjaro.com/releases/ and grab it from here tromjaro.com/install/ . I hope to be able and focus on TROM II from tomorrow on. I'll have to take a decision about our Peertube instance and organize a new TROMcast. But well, they are part of our project so... I gotta do them.

It is such a shame that this world is full of idiots. And I still argue that it is because of our trade based society. Simply because humans are not humans, they are workers. Meaning, specialized in doing a specific task. They do not know more than that. Plus, they spend most of their time working or consuming. And their phones also consumes them since they trade their data and attention to these black holes like fb, twitter, ytb and the like.

So these mindless creatures are super busy consuming and being consumed. There is no more space/time left for anything else, like learning and thinking about the world, engaging in calm and meaningful discussions, and so forth.

Combine that with today's politics that is just football with teams and supporters that scream online for their favorites, and with politicians spreading misinformation online to gain votes (and using the trade-based ad-networks like fb, youtube and so forth, that allow for payments to buy influence) and you get mindless consumers that are angry and loud.

It is the land of confusion... #tromlive

Alright so @Hypolite Petovan the themes are here - drive.tromsite.com/s/E8tTkjbns… (php and css files). I am warning you I did not do them properly at all I apologize. They should be done in a smart manner so that the bulk of the CSS stays the same, while the colors and dark/light variations are changed via PHP. This way you can maintain them so much easier. See if you find it worthy to do anything with them. I worked a lot on them to make them look good with a lot of content types: mastodon, image posts, pixelfed, RSS posts (multiple kinds), peertube, videos, etc..

If you and the other Friendica dev want to include this theme type in the default themes of Frrindica I'd be happy to keep it updated if you manage to clean it and make it a proper theme. Up to you guys!

And here is a video where I explain what I mainly changed and why videos.trom.tf/videos/watch/65… in case you have the patience to see or for anyone who is interested.

Ok that's all. I love Friendica and I managed to drag a bunch of friends over here and keep trying to bring more :). #tromlive

I may have finished the social.trom.tf (friendica) dark themes. Added a Pink one too. And I finished some 70-80% of the light theme. Tomorrow I'll finish that one too. After they are done I'll share them with @Hypolite Petovan and maybe he can help make them better (code wise) and if so and the Friendica dev like them, maybe they can integrate them into the default Friendica's themes selector. And I can help maintain them design wise ;).

I took a break now from TROM II and focused on Friendica because I love the new update and the fact that it works with many Mastodon clients. I hope in 1 day to get back to the documentary editing. It is also hot as fuck here....34 degrees tomorrow. So it is damn hard to work or sleep.

I also got my first vaccine shot and my arm kinda hurts (is normal).

I love the themes I make for Friendica and that Friendica allows anyone to customize it as they wish. Super cool. I know many people brag about Mastodon, Pleroma, Misskey and such when it comes to a federated social network, and they are super cool, but for me nothing beats the awesomeness of Friendica and it so many features, yet so nice looking and functional.
