The past months Kdenlive releases have been kinda buggy. That needs to be said. Crashed for me several times, crashed for @Sasha ... at least the good thing is that you can easily re-open and recover your project. The text tool is buggy.
@Sasha

If anyone can get involved, please do ;) - help the Friendica folks keep this awesome platform alive and great.

#Friendica needs new contributors!

I'm not used to do this, but with the large influx of new users and node admins recently coming from #Twitter, our small team is now behind the curve for handling support requests, bug reports and bring about much-needed features.

The project is built on a #PHP / #MySQL platform, but we also need people to be able to assist others just using the software to give developers some space.

If you're willing and able to help, please follow @Friendica Support and the project on Github: github.com/friendica/friendica

Thank you!

2 packages are holding back another TROMjaro ISO release....they were in the Chaotic AUR but later removed. I will wait 1-2 more days to see if they will be added back (I contacted them about that) if not I will try to package them for TROMjaro's repo.

Companies - something I can never trust.

Their incentive is cancerous, their behavior deceiving.

Friendica fact of the day: you can follow pretty much any website out there, including youtube channels, twitter feeds, you name it. All via RSS. So find the RSS address of any website (usually they link to that on the website) and paste it into the contacts form where you normally add contacts. Then follow.

You can also use a trade-free service like rss.trom.tf/ to grab the RSS for those that have none.

So, join us via social.trom.tf :) and follow any RSS source. Easy.

My university didn't have an RSS address or any other way of notifying people they uploaded some vital info that could get people banished if they didn't read it.
I remember I made a feed for myself via some website that allowed me to select which parts of the website should be monitored, and used a discord bot to notify me if something new was uploaded, with a photo, title, description and link ^^
RSS is a valuable little piece of technology

I tried to update Friendica to the latest stable today, but the @YunoHost package for Friendica pulled the development version of Friendica instead of the stable one. I reported it here github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien… - there is a mistake somewhere....but we can't afford to run the dev branch for our 900 or so users. I will try again later on when this is fixed. For now it is all good, I have restored a server snapshot.

2022.10~ynh1 is actually 2022.12-dev · Issue #82 · YunoHost-Apps/friendica_ynh

I have upgraded my friendica and upgraded to 2022.12-dev .... despite the package being labeled as 2022.10~ynh1. Please see where the mistake is in pulling the friendica files. You should pull from...

Finished 47 or so minutes of the TROM II, 3rd part. Fast! These days I will for sure finish some 50-55 minutes. After that I need to work on some very important 30 or so minutes and reorganize them a bit then edit heavily. That's the last part of this 3rd one. So that's quite challenging....

A massive thanks to Olaf for the 200 Euros donation! If you want to support TROM and all of our projects (see them all here), please consider a donation! Again thank you so much Olaf! #tromlive

Nice article by @Cory Doctorow's linkblog pluralistic.net/2022/11/13/gra… - I too am tempted by the framework laptop. Yes it does not have a dedicated GPU. Yes the screen is kinda small if you want to do video editing, tho I have an external monitor already. But to be able to bloody replace pretty much any part of your laptop, yourself, is bliss. Like he was explaining how he dropped his laptop and destroyed his screen, to then simply order a new screen and replace it himself. Beautiful!
@Cory Doctorow

Tomorrow I will 100% finish the first 40 minutes of the TROM II documentary, part 3 of it. So fast! Awesome! Basically I am almost done with those 40 minutes. Only need to work for an hour or so to finish it. After that I will probably be able to finish the next 10 minutes or more this month. But the rest is a bit unknown and needs some serious work. In any case, am doing it much faster it seems. And so far I love it. #tromlive

Friendica fact of the day: you can compose huge posts on Friendica, add inline media (photos/videos), and even stylize the text (bold, italic, underline, add links to words or sentences). So you can use it as a Twitter or Facebook alternative. No limitations.

No, I think that was someone else. I haven't had any issue with following other accounts on Friendica, at least so far.

I'm currently using #Fedilab (fedilab.app). It has its issues, but the developer is interested in improving Friendica support, so you can report bugs and they're quick to fix it.

@Benjamin Hollon :unverified: and others who use a Framework laptop, is it all metal? How about the front display frame? Is that plastic?

So you're saying this laptop is very well built. idk sounds tempting :D - the main thing bothers me is the small screen. I can't tell how small that is compared to mine. But yeah this laptop sounds like a unique one....to be able to replace pretty much everything is quite useful.

It’s the same size as other screens I’ve had so I wouldn’t know. 🤷‍♂️

I think the most positive thing from the bird-migration lately is about those who knew about the fediverse but were reluctant to join. OR have joined and not used it much. Now they are like "Oh yeah man, this fediverse is awesome" when their bird-friends start moving over, or at least trying it.

Also, another reminder that mastodon is just ONE platform. There are lots of others. Personally I (again) recommend Friendica. This is what it can do and how it looks like trom.tf/social/ and here is our instance that's public social.trom.tf

Oh, that's unfortunate. Probably it's something you can solve with their support though, I've heard they are very helpful. Tbh, I've never seen a laptop with the metal bezel around the screen :thinking face: Even fancy overpriced full metal body macbooks don't have it.

O really? So even macs have a plastic bezel on the display? Interesting....

Fix top bar window buttons in the Unity layout forum.tromjaro.com/t/fix-top-b…

Recently there was a push to a package that made our default TROMjaro Unity layout a bit ugly :D - and we have a temporary fix for it.


Fix top bar window buttons in the Unity layout

For the past week the developer of the xfce4-windowck-plugin-xfwm4-theme-support package pushed an update that made the top window buttons for TROMjaro’s Unity layout to not work with your selected theme.

This is what I use when I need to downgrade a package, its much easier than manually doing everything.

Yeah perhaps that's what I also used in the tutorial but didn't work in Manjaro, hard to explain now. But since I fixed the issue by pushing an older version of the package to our repo.

Friendica fact of the day: you can easily manage multiple accounts under a single one, and switch between them in seconds.

For example I have my personal account, but also a page for our TROM project. And it is so easy to switch between them.

@Sasha is starting a video series (lots of videos) about her hike last year through the Pyrenees, and all is on our Peertube instance.

So basically this girl is some 1.56m tall and weights some 48kg. Despite that she traveled 840km through a mountain chain, with a backpack that was half her weight, alone, for 2 months. With only 3$ a day. If you want to see some really informative, interesting, and cool adventure, start following her channel.

This is her first video videos.trom.tf/w/bscuS7uYA2PYV… - all about packing for the trip. The next videos are about the adventure itself. I joined her for 3 days :D hehe.

You'll see some really cool landscapes, and a very tough little lady :)). And she is also very funny.

Ok. Follow her via Peertube at videos.trom.tf/c/big_world_sma… or via any federated account big_world_small_sasha@videos.trom.tf

In my case things like this end up coming down to "I might not need it, but I'm willing to pay extra so that I have it if I do." It's the same reason I do a lot of typing training; I may not save as much time by typing 120 wpm as I spent training myself to get to that point, but when I have something time-sensitive like writing down notes in class or quickly throwing together a document for a project while groupmates are waiting, it pays off.

Isn't the screen too small tho? I guess it depends what you do, but for video editing I am concerned is too small...

If you want to move from Twitter to the fediverse then Mastodon is the closest in terms of how it works. However Friendica allows you to connect with your Twitter and thus cross post automatically on Twitter too, get all of your Friends' posts in your Friendica timeline, reply to them and all that. So it is a proper integration with Twitter.

Wanna join? Use our instance social.trom.tf

We have custom themes to make it more modern and it works with any Mastodon app.

And that's all.
