I used to make websites since early 2000 and yah I noticed this change. Websites nowadays are a piece of shit. Full of ads, full of click here, see this, infinite scroll, and all that. Our trade-based society changes websites, products, services, wishes, and minds altogether. There is no escape... #tromlive

I plan to send notifications to all users a day before we will update any of the following: social.trom.tf (friendica), files.trom.tf (nextcloud), videos.trom.tf (peertube), office.trom.tf (cryptpad). So users are aware. Imagine if you want to do a live on peertube, or post on friendica and such, and we upgrade and cancel whatever you were doing. Not nice. We want trom.tf to be a proper project ;). #tromlive

We recorded Georgi a bit more today. That's it for her ;). These next weeks will finish the TROM II recordings. Then we have to move out and I'll kill myself. haha. No, is ok...we will move to my parents. They have an empty room. I will do my best to then work on editing the footage for TROM II. It is unfortunate I do not even have a proper environment to work on this, but I will go back to my original place, my original room, where I created the first TROM. Sounds romantic but is less so when you understand I do this because I am poor as fuck :D. Today I felt quite down because of these kind of things but well....this society is evil as shit if you, as a human being, can't even survive unless you struggle to trade yourself all of your life. There is no "default" state in this society. No one deserves, it seems, to be alive unless they play the game of trade. We really have to change this. I don't accept it! #tromlive

From what I understand, Google changes the way it renders the HTML elements so invidious cannot see the comments, channels, or whatever, and thus parts of invidious fail. But now, since I know we can pull from their git directly via the ynh package, it means that we can keep our instance up to date and probably working.

It is a race between youtube and the invidious dev. Youtube changes things, invidious dev have to fix it. But since many invidious instances may not keep their instances up to date, then that's why they break.

So yah, let's see, but if you keep your invidious up to date it should work.

This is how you can connect Twitter with social.trom.tf and give up Twitter for good:#tromlive


Connect with Twitter


!Tips and Help (social.trom.tf) It is possible to connect with your Twitter account now. Simply go to Settings - Social Networks. Click Twitter and click to connect. You'll be redirected to a Twitter page to authorize our app. Get the code, add it to your settings page. That's all.

Now you can follow people on Twitter and interact with them from social.trom.tf. In theory you should also be able to post on Twitter, however from my tests it did not work.

In any case, this is a way for you to give up the trade-based ad-network that is Twitter, and use the trade-free social network social.trom.tf :).

Yah, recycling is like trying to save a sinking ship with a fork. Good luck getting the water out of that ship with your tiny fork. As long as people forget to ask what creates this polluting situation in the first place, they will never fix it. it is like homeopathy: a "solution" to a misunderstood problem. Thus, this is no solution. #tromlive

I would like to do a TROM-Cast all about movies this week. To discuss about the present day movies, the popularity of these "things", and how could we do them better perhaps. To provide examples of educational movies and so on. Stay tuned. ;) I'll post about it these days if we decide. On another news, we had to cancel the recordings for TROM II for now. I hope to get back to that in a week or less. #tromlive

You asked me about the best (most enjoyed) movie I saw, I think it'd probably be "Breaking bad", but its a series not a movie. I only realized how short a movie is after watching series, the same with educational videos after watching documentaries. This is a very popular series, but I think it actually deserved it ! Its hard to keep things realistic and still be enjoyable and entertaining, and this series achieved that.

We added a Like button for videos.trom.tf - no dislike button or view count. That's because a Like button is a way of saying that you liked the content, but a dislike means what? You disliked? Then what did you dislike? Comment to a video if you dislike it, or ignore it. A Like is a form of appreciation so we keep it there. And views should not matter really since how are they counted? These ideas of numbers attached to digital stuff are very weird and nonsensical, and they emerged from our trade-based society where we count stuff and put a price on them. 4 tomatoes or 200. Quantity. Prices. Trading.

We do the same now with videos, or posts, images and so on. We equate views, likes, comments and so forth with "value". A well made and smart video is likely to have less of those anyways, compared to a moronic one. These things cannot be counted or valued. Such a retarded society....

Anyways. #tromlive

Now that you've removed view counts, dislikes etc., I think like counts should be removed too, following the same principle.

This whole thing is really strange to me, I haven't seen anyone remove these numbers on peertube. But I like the way you think, I haven't thought about the numbers in such a way - they don't equal value. There's a lot of underrated content on the internet.
