Our Friendica (TROM Social) failed to update to the latest stable. Likely this bug github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien…
Seems easy to solve, but since our database is massive, around 80GB, it took around 20 hours to restore....
I understand that it totally sucks for a Social Network to be down for almost a day. People may be put off and not want to use Friendica anymore. Or our instance at least. But our instance has been very reliable for the past years and I always email people to tell them about updating it, so they are aware such things can happen.
Also, our budget for TROM.tf is around €0, compared to the billions floating around Facebook and the like. So please understand that.
Today we will give the update another try, and it is likely to work. If it doesn't at least thanks to @YunoHost a backup will be automatically restored.

Regarding that upgrade failure - I ran this:
sudo apt-get update --fix-missing
with that key errors:
Err:6 dl.yarnpkg.com/debian stable InRelease
The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 62D54FD4003F6525

Probably you can do a similar job.
Our Peertube is updated now. Security issue fixed! videos.trom.tf/home
Thank you @PeerTube for fixing it so fast and #yunohost for implementing the change.
If anyone wants to post their videos on our instance, we invite you! Unlimited storage basically, but 5GB a day max upload. If you need more tell us.
Let's add more original and good content on #peertube!
We already have a few original creators, so check them out!

Our #peertube instance - videos.trom.tf - is not currently working. A failed upgrade and failed restore from backup. We need to figure what is the issue...stay tuned.
EDIT: We are affected by this github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube… . Currently trying to fix it. See github.com/YunoHost-Apps/peert…
UPDATE: We fixed the issue. The bloody infection...manually. As recommended by Peertube in the link above. I urge people to do it.
This is a disaster. Updating from 8.1.5 ynh2 to 8.1.6 ynh1. Log here https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/icomahipej 2026-05-23 11:52:54,574: DEBUG - + pushd /var/www/peertube 2026-05-23 11:52:54,574: DE...tio-trom (GitHub)

BTW, I don't think Google is going to completely ditch their search results page, because the TechCrunch article said it like this:
> Instead of returning a simple list of links, Google Search will drop users into AI-powered interactive experiences at times.
I don't think "at times" at the end here was an accident. It is still very bad that Google is doing this, but I feel like if they removed the search results page entirely then there would be a big backlash.
What Google is trying to do now is to slowly get people accustomed to the "AI-powered interactive experience" and perhaps sometime in the future they would make it the default, reminds me of the boiling frog.....
They may not do it now, but may do it eventually. Plus if they push that interactive summary then most people will use that, just as today they use those simple summaries. So in a sense making the search results irrelevant.
But thank you for pointing that out.

There is a new #friendica app github.com/LiveFastEatTrashRac… - looks super good and I've heard they are promoting our instance too since it is quite lively and reliable.
I only tested the app a bit since I do not use mu phone much, but hey @Rokosun maybe you should give it a try! :) Maybe we finally have a great Friendica app :)
Kudos to the people who are making these things. You are awesome people!

1 of May, Workers' Day...
Many humans, all obey
Trade their way
In this system they are prey,
Celebrations on the way!
Hey Hey Hey:)
This society is still primitive since it relies on everyone to trade, be a worker. Else you are fucked. There should be no celebrations about that. This trade based society has to go. Makes no sense anymore and transforms us into mindless robots.

And now from the window of a four-wheeled cab the Queen of Babylon beheld the wonders of London. Buckingham Palace she thought uninteresting; Westminster Abbey and the Houses of Parliament little better. But she liked the Tower, and the River, and the ships filled her with wonder and delight.
“But how badly you keep your slaves. How wretched and poor and neglected they seem,” she said, as the cab rattled along the Mile End Road.
“They aren’t slaves; they’re working-people,” said Jane.
“Of course they’re working. That’s what slaves are. Don’t you tell me. Do you suppose I don’t know a slave’s face when I see it? Why don’t their masters see that they’re better fed and better clothed? Tell me in three words.”

Louis Theroux: Inside The Manosphere - videoneat.com/documentaries/26…
Awful world out there full of idiots. But if you pay close attention to this documentary even these absurdities like the "manosphere" and "how to be a man" are under the direct influence of trade. Trade your bullshit online for views, likes, reactions, to in return get money, stuff, influence. It is so clear.
Trade really ruins everything.

Yes that video was amazing, very well done. It is always people not cars that save Earth, and if those people are not getting the bare minimum of help and support they need then we should fix that first!

@sober_pirate@social.trom.tf BTW, there was no description under that video, maybe you forgot to put that on Peertube? Anyway, just wanted to let you know.
