Thank you to the 37th donor to our 200 for TROM - tromsite.com/donate/ - with little steps we are getting closer to our goal. That of finding 200 people willing to donate 5 Euros a month to support all of our TROM projects forever. #tromlive
TROM Files (Nextcloud) provides 10 GB of storage space for everyone! And we can extend up to 20 GB to whoever needs more storage. All trade-free.
TROM Files is like Google Drive + Google Photos + Trello + more into one single package, but no bullshit subscriptions, ads, data collection.
You have access to Collabora (Libreoffice cloud) - a powerful Office suite that allows you to edit any documents and collaborate on them.
You have access to a Photo Gallery app and the ability to edit your photos directly in TROM Files:
You have access to a Notes app and a Music player. Plus "Deck" to organize your teams and tasks.:
Lastly you have access to a fully featured Calendar:
Please share so that everyone takes advantage of this. There is no catch if you understand what we do at TROM. We've been creating trade-free materials and services since 2011.
And please consider becoming one of the 200 people that we need in order to support this TROM project forever --->> tromsite.com/donate/
Thank you Adam for becoming the 36st supporter of TROM! We need 200 people to donate 5 Euros a month in order to support TROM and all if its baby projects, forever. If you can, please join tromsite.com/donate/ #tromlive
We are all humans. Atoms that make cells, cells that make us. We are not israelies, palestinians, americans, jews, arabs, europeans....we are HUMANS. And we have more than enough resources to share and live in a paradise on a beautiful and complex planet.
What a shame that the same brains who can understand how the universe works and the complexity that we have discovered so far, can be imprisoned by nonsense ideas and beliefs, and then kill each other because of these.
Our next TROM big project will be a stuff sharing platform that uses the Activitypub protocol. So anyone can spin their own local sharing platform and connect with the rest. It is a long term plan, but we will try to do it. It is just an idea for now.... but the other TROM projects were ideas too.
Of course it makes a lot of sense for people to create local sharing communities where they live, and with Activitypub support we can bridge these localized communities together to form a wider network spanning the entire globe.
Indeed. Sharebay is starting globally and I think that's bound to fail. I have stuff to share but there is no way I can do it via Sharbay since the closest people to me are hundreds of km away....I won't pay for transport and they may not either. It needs to be local for sure. Global in case someone is willing to pay for transport. Activitypub allows us to have both!
All of our TROM Files are again available via TROM Files tromsite.com/save/ - we make everything available for everyone, as trade-free. If more people would practice what we do, to create trade-free goods and services, the world would be a better place. It is tough of course, since the entire society relies on trade. But we must start something like this, despite being so difficult.
The move of TROM.tf to the new server is now complete! As a bonus we have raised the storage for TROM Files from 5GB to 10GB for everyone, plus added Deck - an alternative to Trello, so that you can organize tasks and collaborate with others.
We've also increased the size limit for TROM Send from 5GB to 10GB.
The new server is more powerful and has a lot more storage space. But also a little bit more expensive. So please consider a donation to support TROM.
Our TROM Videos, Peertube, now runs from our new server! videos.trom.tf
Unfortunately for TROM Send we could not properly restore it so we have lost the temporary files. Mind you these shared files via TROM Send are temporary. To make up for this we increased the 5Gb limit to 10GB per share! :)
Only one that needs to be moved is TROM Social (Friendica). Which should be moved tonight!
My name is Tio and I manage pretty much all of the TROM projects.
I am sorry to tell you this, but I will remove the tasks.trom.tf (Vijunka) from our TROM.tf services. Let me briefly explain.
First, I am overwhelmed. I have to manage so many things, it has become a burden. This is why I will cut down from our trom.tf services. I would like to keep those that I also use so to make sure everything works well and I am motivated enough to keep them well managed. I used Vikunja for our TROM projects but since then I discovered a better local alternative: AppFlowy - appflowy.io/ - en excellent all-in-one notes taking app with calendars and kaban-style to-do lists. There is also Focalboard that is more alike Vikunja aur.archlinux.org/packages/foc… and can even be used locally.
And lastly we have added Deck to our TROM Files

Hello people,
My name is Tio and I manage pretty much all of the TROM projects.
I am sorry to tell you this, but I will remove the tasks.trom.tf (Vijunka) from our TROM.tf services. Let me briefly explain.
First, I am overwhelmed. I have to manage so many things, it has become a burden. This is why I will cut down from our trom.tf services. I would like to keep those that I also use so to make sure everything works well and I am motivated enough to keep them well managed.

There is also Focalboard that is more alike Vikunja aur.archlinux.org/packages/foc… and can even be used locally.
And lastly we have added Deck to our TROM Files files.trom.tf - a great online Kaban-style tool. I have been using this for years to collaborate on projects. It is even easier to use than Vikunja and you can invite others to collaborate on tasks.
Lastly, we are moving to a new and better server and Vikunja fails to restore properly...I tried many things and it simply takes too long to find a solution.
Those being said, I am sorry to bother you with this and I really strive to provide good and reliable services, but Vikunja (Tasks) was always one of those services that I knew it won't last too long considering the alternatives out there.
TROM Files with Deck is perhaps the best replacement if you want to collaborate online with others.
Therefore please backup your stuff and import into some other similar app/service. Around 30st of this month TROM Tasks (Vikunja) will stop.
Again, sorry for the inconvenience and do not worry services like TROM Files will never cease to exist since we use them for our project daily.
Ok folks the next days we will be moving trom.tf to a new server. Some services may not work for several hours. Be aware of that and keep an eye on status.tromsite.com #tromlive
LibrePCB is a free, cross-platform, easy-to-use electronic design automation suite to draw schematics and design printed circuit boards – for makers, students and professionals, from beginners to experts.
This software just lets you develop electronics the right way. No costs. No restrictions. No online account. No unnecessary complexity.
TROM Social: We are moving our instance to a new server, so for the next days (maximum a week) we have disabled the registrations there, simply because many email confirmations cannot be sent form our current server so most registrations will fail. #tromlive
OctoPrint is an open source 3D printer controller application, which provides a web interface for the connected printers. It displays printers’ status and key parameters and allows user to schedule prints and remotely control the printer.
The usual Manjaro Stable updates plus: QT6 QML apps break… What we are trying to do in terms of syncing the themes across GTK and QT is not something that either of those officially support, so it is more of a hack that has worked for many years no…
In just 2 days after we moved our SearxNG instance (TROM Search) to a new dedicated server, it has been blocked by pretty much all search engines. It requires, it seems, a lot of work to have such an instance run at optimal levels and stay relevant. We do not have these resources. I, Tio, am doing pretty much most of the work behind TROM and I am completely overwhelmed. Therefore our TROM Search is forever removed and we are going to redirect to searx.neocities.org/ which is a meta-search, using the most relevant and well maintained Searx instances, randomly.
Let's leave this job at maintaining such a Trade Free search engine interface, to those who know best and have more time. We already have a ton of projects. Better spend this time creating new content.
On top of this we have permanently removed our TROM Translate which was another TF interface for Google Translate. We may add our own translation engine in the future.
I need to scale down the work I am doing for TROM because

I need to scale down the work I am doing for TROM because it is not humanly possible to run such an immense project with so many "things" that we have created.....from an operating system to a video and social platform, to books, podcasts, documentaries and a lot more.
Time to remove the projects that are not necessary!
We are going to move our Peertube instance videos.trom.tf to a better server so we highly recommend that you do not upload any new video for the next days. We would like to avoid data loss. #tromlive
We have moved our TROM Search search.trom.tf to a separate server to make it work better and isolate it from our TROM.tf server because our IP got blocked several times by google, yahoo, micosoft and the like. And for example people using those companies as their email accounts could not receive emails form us, like say resetting their passwords and such. Hosting such Trade Free interfaces for these big ad platforms like search, youtube and the like, is a pain in the ass. But for now we consider the search engine as important, so we will keep it isolated like that.
For the next 2 weeks or so we will work on moving our trom.tf to a new and better server. You will for sure see downtimes....Always check status.tromsite.com
