Currently the following websites have been "fixed" for mobile screens, so that they look ok on these tiny devices:

- tromsite.com/
- tromnews.com/
- videoneat.com/
- tromjaro.com/
- trom.tf/ (but not the individual services)
- trade-free.org/ and directory.trade-free.org/

We mainly have to fix our TROM.tf services, individually....that could take some time... #tromlive

According to the-federation.info/friendica our social.trom.tf Friendica instance, is the 7th Friendica instance in terms of total users, and the 3rd in terms of monthly active users.

That's great! We are only one and a half years old or so. We will continue to grow and overall Friendica gained almost double the users in the past year.

It is still a drop in the ocean, but adds to the big fediverse network. Happy to see that. Please join us! #tromlive

We are integrating a few things into the new TROMjaro release:

Our Trade-Free Library of apps. We are adding it as a webapp.

VideoNeat - fast access to hundreds and hundreds of quality documentaries and courses.

On top of this we are adding to the Documents folder a PDF about our Trade-Free initiative.

Beyond Orwell ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=tTgH_-ohys…

Very well made video. Highly recommend. It is missing something tho.....to understand that the structure of this system, globally, is based on trade. As simple and as idiotic as that. The new religion: trade. This is where TROM brings something new to the table, and very important. #tromlive

We are in a much better financial situation than we've been in the past years, thanks to some big donations these past months and our ability to work (trade ourselves) to make some money. However, this is just to buy us time to focus on TROM and its so many projects. And things may change the next months, we may have to move to a new hosting provider that could be twice as expensive. We will have to pay the yearly backups for borgbase.com and megasync, and so forth.

Therefore any donation that we will get, will go towards such things and "buying" us more time for these projects.

Thank you to those who have always supported TROM via donations. We do not sell anything, or treat anyone differently. TROM is what it is. With its plenty-of-services available as trade-free for everyone.

We are removing bag.trom.tf (wallabag) from our services. We do not use it much at all, and recently no one could register - the registration confirmation email cannot be sent (see).

We do not have the time to fix or maintain this. It was one of the few services that we were unsure of from the get-go. It will still be around for months to come, but no new registrations are possible and we removed it from the front page. #tromlive

Carbon Offsets: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=6p8zAbFKpW…

Trade trade, trade trade, trade trade....as long as we are compelled and trained to trade, that's our priority. Does not matter if it is a company or an individual. #TradeRuinsEverything #tromlive

We have removed out Bilbiogram instance from our TROM.tf suite of services. It is being discontinued teddit.net/r/privacy/comments/… plus it never really worked. Instagram is a devil-child of Facebook/Meta, and Facebook trades human minds (content, attention, time, etc.). Thus, Instagram is not happy to let such frontends like bibliogram run. It runs against their trading business. A battle Instagram will always win.

People should not use instagram. Use Pixelfed pixelfed.org/ - federated, trade-free. #tromlive

TROM Presentation at Atlantykron 2022 videos.trom.tf/w/rToaoUqGZATe2…

@Alexio gave a presentation at atlantykron.org and showcased the many tools that we have.

"The Atlantykron Project is a living experiment of education in nature. The academy brings together world leading experts, the latest learning tools and technologies, and youth from many countries. This combination of teaching, learning and living in a natural and wild environment creates an educational and life experience like no other. "

Unfortunately the presentation is only in the Romanian language. We have added subtitles in different languages but they are auto-translated so they are likely not that great. In any case, the important thing is that Alexio did the presentation. We need more Alexio's!

Anyone can present TROM everywhere they can. This helps us spread the core message of the project, that trade is the source of most problems. And to also showcase the many trade-free tools that we have.

Thank you Alexio!
