Many thanks to everyone to is still supporting TROM financially - tromsite.com/donate/

We ask for 5€ donations if anyone can help, to distribute the financial burden and not rely on a few individuals. There are 83 people supporting us monthly. If anyone thinks this project is worth supporting please see the donation page and help. There we explain all what we do.

Thank you very much!

Thank you Ondine for becoming our new TROM supporter tromsite.com/donate/ - it is so motivating to see new people supporting TROM. Makes you want to put more effort into it, create new things, etc.!

If we get 12 more people to donate 5€ a month we can do these:

We will start a video series for TROM, similar to the books' content.
We will bring back TROMnews because the world needs a good news website.
We will increase the TROM Files storage space to 20GB for all.​

That would be fantastic!

We have to increase a bit the fundraiser due to some "sales taxes"... gofundme.com/f/yearly-fundrais…

Apparently we had to pay that too...

Thank you so much everyone! We are 83% there!

Yearly Fundraiser for our Backups - gofund.me/d96c58985

Hello friends,

We need to pay for our backups every year. We backup with borgbase.com all of our websites. Two servers, a total of around 3TB of data.

We backup:

- tromsite.com
- videoneat.com
- tromjaro.com
- trade-free.org
- directory.trade-free.org
- trom.tf - all of our services: Friendica, Peertube, Nextcloud, etc.

See all of our projects here tromsite.com/

Many thanks!

Thank you Jean for becoming our new 5€ a month supporter tromsite.com/donate/ !!

And thank you to everyone who supports TROM financially. We do a lot of projects. We provide a Friendica instance and have over a thousand users, a Peertube instance with unlimited uploads, a Nextcloud instance providing 10GB of space for everyone and a full Office Suite...a custom Linux distribution, a documentaries-based website...

See our donation page how many things we do. And we will do more!

#nextcloud #friendica #fediverse #peertube #fedi #selfhosting #foss #opensource

Our Friendica has been more stable for the past days. This is good. Maybe leftover database tasks from the recent update made our CPU work so hard. So far all is looking good.

#friendica #fedi #fediverse

We have 3 more supporters who donate 5€ a month. Thank you so much to Colin, John, and Kershaw! tromsite.com/donate/

We need 12 more people to start a new video series, bring back TROMnews, and increase the storage for our TROM Files (nextcloud) to 20GB for everyone.

Maybe we can make it happen. Would be fantastic!

#tromsite #nextcloud #fedi #fediverse #volunteer #campaign #trom #tromtf #foss #opensource

We will update our TROM Social tomorrow!

Be aware that some things may not work well for hours. And in case of failure it will take us some time to restore from a backup. Let's hope all will go well. And if you'd like to support what we do and pay for our servers, you can consider a donation here tromsite.com/donate/ . Is up to you, our services will always be trade-free regardless. Cheers! @Tio

We have a new subscriber to our 200 for TROM campaign - tromsite.com/donate/

Thank you Robert!

We need 200 people to donate 5€ a month to make our TROM Projects sustainable. We are almost half way there!

#foss #tromsite #opensource #volunteer #fediverse #fedi

Thank you to those who are helping TROM monthly! Our first goal is to reach 100 monthly donors to kickstart a new video series for TROM, bring back TROMnews and provide 20GB storage space for our Nextcloud install (TROM Files) for everyone.

We have a lot of projects and hundreds, if not thousands of people are using our services.

Everything we do is trade-free. No bullshit.

We need 17 more donors to reach our first goal. If you can help please see tromsite.com/donate/

Again thank you to everyone who has supported this project for so many years now!

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.

It is finally time to take care of TROM. The website got a bit updated/fixed here and there. We also updated the Donation page. There are 89 people who donate 5 Euros a month. Thank you so much!

Soon we will add goals to the donation page, and if we reach those we can release some new stuff and/or increase the storage for TROM Files for everyone and so forth.

If you can donate and support the so many projects we do, see tromsite.com/donate/

Thank you Charles and Jurgen for helping with our fundraiser! gofundme.com/f/paying-for-the-…

We need to pay for our yearly backups for all of our servers and files, that includes the files people store on any of our TROM.tf services.

So please, if you can help us a bit. We only need some 200 Euros for cover the bills.

Thanks!

#linux #opensource #fediverse #peertube #fedi #trom

We need to pay for the yearly backups for all of our services and content - gofundme.com/f/paying-for-the-…

This means all of our TROM.tf services (friendica, peertube, nextcloud, etc.), all of our websites like tromsite.com, videoneat.com, tromjaro.com, and so on.

We only need 230 Euros to cover another year of backups. Please if you can help out since we are underfunded and cannot afford to pay for them.

The payment is yearly. We need to pay by the end of this month (March).

Thanks a bunch!

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.
