Thank you Robert for becoming the 88th TROM supporter. We need 200 people to donate 5 Euros a month to support all of our projects. #tromsite #tromtromsite.com/donate/
These past days the focus was on TROM.tf and TROMjaro. Updates, bug fixes, maintenance. We are currently experiencing some issues with our Friendica if anyone can give us a helping hand please see this github.com/friendica/friendicaโฆ
We will release a new TROMjaro soon with our new and awesome theme switcher, a new virtual keyboard, and more.
I am using the filesystem for storing the media. I have been for a while now. But after the update to 2024.08 I see a ton of these: ERROR worker Uncaught exception in worker execution Data class Fr...

For the past few days we managed to trigger the auto-transcription for thousands of our peertube videos videos.trom.tf - All of our TROMcasts, our TROM documentary snippets, all of our videos indeed and all of the VideoNeat trailers now have an English caption. While it is not perfect, it is impressively accurate considering that it is automated. @PeerTube is a real alternative to Youtube, in all regards.
Every new video that is going to be uploaded to our Peertube will have a caption from now on.
How do you make money with content posted on peertube? Not that that functionality is any good on YouTube, but it's functionality it has. It is ad-based on YouTube, so not trustworthy as far as I'm concerned. Does Peertube support that? If so, how?
There are plugins for Peertube as far as I know that enable such features. They are made by 3rd party devs. I would hate to see ads on Peertube and we will never enable that. In that sense peertube is not an alternative to youtube and I hope it stays this way.
Our TROM Social first page (login) is not anymore just an empty page with a simple login, it provides you a peek into the fediverse:
Now you can see what's going on on the network, maybe to convince you to join :). It took a lot of CSS and HMTL gymnastics to achieve this. From my tests on desktop with mobile emulators all looks good on mobile, but for some reason when I check it on my phone it does not look as it should....I shall investigate.
Implemented some dark toggles for some of our services, where it was doable, such as Call
Search
Speed
And made our TROM Call, Jitsi Meet, more reliable.
Lastly we spent many days trying to figure out how to make our Peertube Live work better. Hours of tests, lots of logs. Hopefully we can make it more reliable.
tromnews.com/ is now mobile friendly! :) An extremely important website that curates news, videos, photos, and more from hundreds and hundreds of reliable sources.
A big thank you to the anonymous donor who sent 500 Euros for @Rokosun to buy a laptop. Roko has been helping with our TROM projects for a while now. TROMjaro would not be possible the way it is now without him. He is the one coding our layout and theme switchers and a lot more.
Roko got TROM's "legacy" laptop a year ago :) but unfortunately the motherboard died :(. So he ended up using an old laptop that barely worked. He could barely test stuff for TROMjaro. So he really needed a good machine.
Now he will buy one and will be able to more easily help with the TROM project. We have a lot of plans! Follow us on the fediverse ;)

Hey I just wanted to say that this donation really came in a time of need and I'll always be grateful for this kindness ๐
I also have plans to contribute to other TROM projects beyond just TROMjaro Linux, I'm still in the process of learning new things so let's see..... ๐
After many months we are bringing back our TROM.tf Search! search.trom.tf/ thanks to Danny!
But with a twist. Instead of hosting a SearX instance we are using a script that checks the best and most reliable instances and uses them randomly for every search. It is a meta-search engine. This way we make sure it is reliable and our IP will never get blocked by google and the rest.
For those who do not know, SearX is itself a sort of meta-search engine, pulling results from google, DDG, yahoo and more, removing the ads and trackers, and basically allowing you to search without those viruses.
So, we are finally back!
To add it to Firefox simply right click the URL after the page loads, and then add the TROM Search as a search engine. From Firefox's settings make sure you select it to be as default for your browser.
Doesn't seem to be responding to input: I can enter a query, and select the radio buttons, but clicking the search button or hitting enter does nothing.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Maybe it requires some wacky 3rd party permissions?
Thank you Juan for becoming our new supporter for 200 for TROM campaign! tromsite.com/donate/ - If this campaign reaches its goal then TROM will be sustainable, kinda forever. It will allow us to run the so many projects/services for a while, without stressing over the money situation.
Help if you can. Spread if you can. Thanks!
Everything we do is trade-free. So the only way to support TROM is through volunteer donations.
Huge thanks to Raffael for the 120 Euros donation to TROM! Much much appreciated! We still accept one time donations despite our 200 for TROM campaign where we basically only accept 5 Euros a month donations. The one time donations are still available at the bottom of the campaign page and will always be made public.
TROM II: A Message to the Aliens Year: 2023ย ย /ย ย Duration: 4 parts, 5 hours We live in a world where everyone is busy, everyone is consumed, everyone seems confused. Money, social credits, ads, data collection, prices and billionaires.
Big thanks to those who support our 200 for TROM donation campaign tromsite.com/donate/ - there are 44 people donating 5 Euros a month and we need 200 in total. We provide a lot of materials and tools - see the donation page. Your support allows us to keep these alive and relevant, and if enough support to continue to produce more.
Remember, among many things, we provide a video platform with unlimited uploads for anyone, a file hosting platform with 10GB of storage for any user that registers, a social network and a chat platform. Also a Linux Operating System. A lot, and for everyone. So please, consider donating 5 Euros a month if you can. It is the only amount we accept.
