VideoNeat.com: We have temporarily removed our Favorite plugin because it has a security vulnerability. We reported it and as soon as it is fixed we will add it back to VideoNeat.

Our TROM Discussions chat on Matrix is now TROM Community Discussions: This chatroom is not representative of TROM, but allows for a public discussion space, hopefully around TROM-like subjects.

I, Tio, need to focus on a new video series for TROM and that chat was keeping me too busy at times. While the discussions can be interesting, they are often offtopic and for me quite distracting,

I will keep an eye on the chat from time to time tho...

So you know.

We have 2 new subscribers to our 200 for TROM campaign - tromsite.com/donate/

Thank Aaron and Wilf!

We need 9 more people in order to achieve our first goal: start a video series, bring back TROMnews and provide 20GB storage space for TROM Files for all users.

#opensource #foss #society #trom #tromsite #campaign #fedi

Rebooting TROM! These are our goals if you can help:

We can increase the storage space for TROM Files up to 50GB for each user. We can start a new video series, bring back TROMnews, make an app for VideoNeat, and more.

We only need a minimum of help. A handful of people willing to donate 5 Euros a month.

Since we do not bullshit you with "you send us money and we will give you a special treatment" then it is harder to find people to help us since everyone is used to being "rewarded" for their help.

But we want to keep everything that we do trade-free for EVERYONE.

We could easily say "If you donate we will give you more storage space on TROM Files" or more advantages for any of our services.

But we NEVER did that, and NEVER will.

Therefore, if you see the value in what we do - and please see here tromsite.com/donate/ all of what we do (scroll down to see it all), then please support us with this campaign.

The hopes are low, but then the surprises can feel a lot better.

A big thanks to Raimondas for the 277 Euros donation. A great surprise and very welcomed. I, Tio, will try to live with as little money as possible in order to keep on focusing on TROM. To have time for it and myself. To keep these projects alive. In a few weeks time I will post more videos about the way I live in a motorhome with very little money - see tromhome.com/ . And of course I will try to kickstart a new TROM video series soon.

Any donation counts tromsite.com/donate/

Thank you again!

We need help with our 200 for TROM Campaign - tromsite.com/donate/ - we have a bit over 40% of the needed support. We only accept 5€ a month donations to not have to rely on a few individuals donating more money. We need to make this sustainable.

Unfortunately the support over the past months has dropped a little bit. So if you can, please support us.

On the same page you can see what you are supporting. We hope this year to bring new projects to TROM, although it is terribly difficult to do so when you can't even get the minimum support needed to run the current projects.

We have been resilient since 2011 so we will not give up, but the ones who see value in such projects need to support them at least a little bit in order for these projects to survive.

Many thanks to those who keep on supporting us!

IMPORTANT!

We will remove our Matrix server in a week time (4th of May). Here's why?

In short: the service has become hard to manage and bots (likely) have taken advantage of our kindness spamming other rooms/users. Because of that our hosting provider wanted to shut down our entire TROM.tf server. Hard to deal with all that and with a huge 300GB database. On top of this anyone can make an account with matrix.org or other instances.

Full explanation and solutions here - trom.tf/chat/

We have updated our Peertube to version 7! Lots of cool stuff - read more here.

But the most important for us is the visual aspect. Now we are using the main and default and much improved Peertube themes (Dark/Light) with very very minimal changes (maybe 5 lines of CSS).

No more broken UI, no more being unable to have a proper dark theme, no headaches with every Peertube updated. They have made an awesome theme and we will go with that.

We need to promote this platform more often and I ask people to try and be a bit more brave ;) and prioritize Peertube. Post there like we do. Sure you may get less views, but you are growing a trade-free (saner) platform, and thus saner minds that do not have to be exposed to the tsunami of ads that Youtube infects every viewer with.

Congrats @PeerTube for doing an amazing job!

TROM.tf server updated to the latest Yunohost and Debian. However our Matrix server is currently not working, probably lots of database migrations are still on the way. Hopefully in a few hours it should work, if not there is some work to do to fix it.

TROM Send is not working - will see what can be done about that. For now it has been removed.

And we have removed our Pixelfed instance. It was setup for testing purposes and I, Tio do not have time to manage it. Plus the YNH package is not very up to date. Lastly, we are running very low on diskspace for TROM.tf so we need to only keep relevant and useful services.

If in the future someone from TROM wants to manage a Pixelfed instance we can fire one up ;).

There is a lot of work for TROM behind the scenes, so you know!
