We will shut down pass.trom.tf (vaultwarden) and text.trom.tf (etherpad). pass.trom.tf was added more like a test with a warning and only 2 users registered anyways. 1 of whom added 1 entry and the user was contacted to save its entry locally. This service takes more time to properly setup - for example to make sure it is secure, has a 2FA enabled, works with other clients, and more. We do not have the time right now to do all of this and we do not want to provide any service that is not very well tested and that works reliably.
Etherpad (text.trom.tf) is unnecessary when we already have office.trom.tf + files.trom.tf. Both are great office suites and office.trom.tf provides a super easy and fast to setup document editor. It is pointless to have Etherpad that brings nothing new or different from office.trom.tf.
We need useful services that are well setup and maintained, not a lot that are meh. #tromlive

TROMcast: To Moderate, Or Not
Today we will discuss about this notion of moderating the Internet content by looking closely at our videos.trom.tf (Peertube) instance and what happens to it. The fact that it is full of nonsense content and why is it that these alternative platforms such as Peertube, get invaded by the worst that the Internet and our society has produced.

Now that Peertube allows us to create a custom homepage, we can highlight the best of Peertube. We are adding more and more to the homepage. We worked for a bit to make it look nice - see for yourself videos.trom.tf/
As a bonus we will add on the homepage a very interesting documentary every week or so. So keep an eye on it! #tromimg

TROMmaps officially added to trom.tf/ as a fully functioning service. See it here in action maps.trom.tf/ and here you can learn more about it trom.tf/maps/ . It is an amazingly great trade-free map.
We need you to vote on this poll - poll.trom.tf/studs.php?poll=J5โฆ
It is about how should we go forward with our TROMvideos (Peertube). We have some 2 weeks to decide. There are 2 options. Choose one please! Thanks!
We added the new slightly improved designs of our themes, how to find other people on the platform, and what apps you can use with TROMsocial. Give it a look # tromimg

Why the RNLI rescues migrants
We're proud of the lifesaving work our volunteers do in the English Channel โ and we make no apology for it. Those we rescue are vulnerable people in danger ...Invidious

This is why I like fediverse, because this is the only place that have even tried to address this problem - fosstodon.org/@garritfra/10519โฆ
The thread is kinda broken there because #fedilab dev moved to a different username now, so all his replies are gone.

Not only can we implement anti-addiction features on fediverse, but users also have the choice between different clients. I can even use mastodon on my terminal, lol ๐
Despite all this, social medias can still seem like its addictive, but its not as bad as you think. Science vs did an episode on this - gimletmedia.com/shows/science-โฆ
Note: This doesn't mean you should keep using ad platforms like facebook, move to fediverse !

I feel like I'm being a bit addictive to mastodon recently. So I might be taking a break from it soon. I've seen others taking a break from fediverse, they come back after a few days, weeks or even months. They post about it before going.
I don't know if its a bad thing TBH, all the interactions I've had here seem to be meaningful in some way. I'll be taking this break just to try out something new, maybe watch some documentaries or something.

I'm hoping its opt-in. So that people who want it can still enable it.
TBH, I didn't clearly understood what notifications you meant. What did you mean by newsfeed ?

TROM-Cast: Managing our Peertube, Space Exploitation, and some updates
TROM-Cast is coming back, at least for now. Live on 30st this month (30.07.2021). 11:00PM Madrid time (23:00).
We are going to discuss about our Peertube instance (videos.trom.tf) and how we've been forced to limit it and perhaps moderate it in the future; we talk about what happened and in general about conspiracy theorists (or crazy people) and what can be done about them.
We will talk a bit about what's happening around the project, but also about other things that happened lately: the space exploitation of billionaires, new trom.tf apps, and more.
Anyone can subscribe to our Peertube channel here videos.trom.tf/video-channels/โฆ and be notified when we go live. Or keep an eye on our live tromsite.com/live/ or simply follow us on our social network social.trom.tf/profile/trom
All of them are free to use via RSS or create free accounts on these platforms that we manage and are trade-free.

TROM Documentary โ https://www.tromsite.com/documentary/
Content:
The TROM documentary is trying to present, in a simplistic way, the world in which we, human beings, live. We try to present the world that was discovered so far through the lenses of science: from the evolution of everything (including us) to the monetary system (the game we currently play), to a different kind of world that we could build for the benefit of us all, then back to Earth. We are trying to present alternative solutions to current problems and take into account the future, which promises to be more than interesting. An informative documentary, perhaps shocking and disturbing to many, depending on how you digest the information. The documentary is divided into chapters and sub-chapters due to the documentaryโs excessive length (14 hours) and all the parts are connected so we recommend that you see them in order.
