On top of our custom themes now our Friendica (social.trom.tf) also has this BookFace theme for those who want a more "facebook" like experience in terms of looks.
So go to settings/display and choose your own theme.

Our updated forum, finally! - forum.tromjaro.com/t/our-updat…
This is a very short post to tell you that we have finally updated our Discourse forum to the latest. For the past year (or more) the Yunohost package for Discourse (what we use) was quite broken and we ended up having an entire separate server just or the forum since we could not update the server itself because of it. Therefore we had an old forum on an old server.
Now we managed to do some gymnastics and move it to our main server and update it. Finally! From now on I hope there will be no more such issues.
I was willing to even give up on all of our forum posts, accounts and comments just to be able to update it and not pay for a separate server for it.
But now all is good. All is fixed apparently.
Many thanks to the folks from Yunohost for the work that they do! And to those who made the Discourse software!

It is a delight to see people registering to our Friendica almost daily.
And yes these are not bots. Since we "force" anyone who register to tell us why they want to be part of our network (to filter out the bots), I can tell that those who register are not garbage pieces of "AI", but real and interesting humans who are also interested in our TROM project.
Just wonderful! :)
Our platform is a home for anyone who wants to join, granted they don't use it to abuse others or only use it as an ad platform to promote whatever they sell. So basic decency ;).

Download the English subtitle from here.
A young Palestinian activist named Basel Adra has been resisting the forced displacement of his people by Israel’s military in Masafer Yatta, a region in the West Bank, since he was a child. He records the gradual destruction of his homeland, where Israeli soldiers are tearing down homes and evicting their inhabitants. He befriends Yuval, an Israeli journalist who helps him in his struggle. They form an unexpected bond, but their friendship is challenged by the huge gap between their living conditions: Basel faces constant oppression and violence, while Yuval enjoys freedom and security.
Thank you for the anonymous 300 Euros donation! tromsite.com/donate
We will put the money towards buying a satellite dish in order to have a proper internet connection in the motorhome (TROMhome) to be able to manage all of our TROM Projects. If you have no phone signal, thus no Internet, then no one can fix/update any of our websites....but with a satellite internet we can stay connected anywhere basically.
For example when we release a new TROMjaro ISO that is 4-5GB that needs to be uploaded in 2 different places (so around 10GB) and to make sure they upload correctly. So a good and reliable internet connection is a must for us in the motorhome.
We only need 150 Euros more to buy the dish - gofundme.com/f/help-us-get-a-s…
If anyone can help, this is a direct help for TROM. If not, is ok since we will have to buy it anyway one way or another.
This 300 Euros donation is a huge help. Many many thanks!!
We got a 300 Euros donation so we put the money towards this satellite dish. Thus we on… Tio TROM needs your support for Help us get a satellite internet dishgofundme.com

Benjamin Netanyahu, facing allegations of bribery and corruption, is being interrogated by Israeli police. Netanyahu is defensive, calling the interrogators’ questions “delusional” and the investigation “preposterous and insane”.
Insiders, including investigative journalist Raviv Drucker, believe that the 2018–2022 Israeli political crisis was a direct result of Netanyahu’s efforts to avoid prosecution. They also claim that Netanyahu is using the Israel–Hamas war as an instrument to further delay his trial. Drucker is familiar with Netanyahu, having published several investigative reports on Netanyahu in the years before the documentary. Despite decades of corruption allegations, Drucker notes that Netanyahu has never faced prosecution.

Good luck.
For what it's worth, I had more problems updating Ubuntu on my wife's old laptop from 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS than I did migrating my laptop from Debian 11 to Debian 12... But I don't have server stuff running on either of those, so I don't have the complexity you have!

Logan Paul is one of the biggest influencers in the world, but he has faced criticism for his role in promoting various cryptocurrency projects.
Matt Shea investigates the allegations against him and the power of his influence. Shea dives into the wild world of influencer-led cryptocurrency projects and uncovers allegations that Logan Paul may have misled his fans in a bid to make money. Paul rejects these criticisms and insists he can be trusted.
Speaking to law enforcement and alleged victims, and trying to get close to the man himself, Shea seeks to finally answer the question: did Logan Paul do anything wrong?
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!
