Hello people,

I (Tio) had a great time in Prague at the ZDay event, and I made a blog post all about it, here - https://www.tiotrom.com/2023/09/the-zday-experience/ - it is a big blog post, because it was a big and wonderful experience.

Wow thank you so much for the 260 Euros donation dear anonymous donor!

We really need support now because we work hard to move our servers to a different location for multiple reasons. But basically we are forced to. So we have to pay a lot more money to move them. But we plan to provide more storage space for TROM Files and maybe more services via TROM.tf too. We are expanding!

If you can support us please do so here - https://www.tromsite.com/donate/

These releases are mainly for the ones trying TROMjaro for the first time. They contain the updates that come from Manjaro, so that whoever grabs our ISO do not have to install a lot of updates.

Thank you so much SomeOrdinaryDude for the 50 Euros donation! Much much appreciated! While in the long run we need the 200 for TROM campaign to succeed, anyone can still send one time donations from the same page - scroll to the bottom.

We are in the process of trying to find a long term solution for our TROM.tf. Mostly in terms of diskspace since we are running low on that. So any financial help is much much appreciated!

Thank you!

We are working on an improved ZDay presentation with a much better audio and footage from a secondary camera. So that you know ;) . We understand that the current video has a very bad audio, but we didn't know that they would not record directly from the mic. Else we would have used a lav-mic. Anyway, we should release an enhanced presentation in less than a week. #tromlive

TROM Files now has a wonderful calendar app https://files.trom.tf - you can even integrate it with your local apps. Import from your trade-based services into this trade free calendar!

Our Friendica is now super fast, same is for our Matrix! So TROM Social and TROM Chat seem to work great now!

The plans for the next weeks:

- Update our Friendica and test to make sure everything works fine
- Move our Peertube storage to an object storage so we free up space on our server. Currently we are at the limit when it comes to storage. Using an object storage allows us to scale up.
- Add Pixelfed to our TROM.tf services
- Release a new TROMjaro

All of these require a lot of time and resources. So it make take more than just weeks.

If you can support this work and can donate 5 Euros a month, maybe you can join the 200 for TROM https://www.tromsite.com/donate/ - currently there are some 30 people supporting us and we only need 170 more to make TROM forever sustainable 😀

Our ZDay presentation is now translated into 4 languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Czech and Catalan https://videos.trom.tf/w/d5wwwrwGD7D3EE2BuTw6uT

Kudos to the people who are translating these TROM videos without anyone asking them to do so or how to do it. At TROM we work in this decentralized and more emerging style: people can get involved with whatever they can, and do it on their own.

We only provide some tools and platforms, like our Translation Matrix chat https://matrix.to/#/#translation:matrix.trom.tf

Amazing people. One of them actually, Lenka, we meet at ZDay. She came because of TROM and she quickly became our friend.

Now she made the Czech subtitle for the presentation and she wants to work on the entire TROM II documentary to subtitle it into Czech. Awesome people!

If Jesus or Superman were to exist in today's society, they would not be able to survive just by doing good things, by helping others and so forth. They would have to become social media influencers:

Sell their own shampoo line, advertise for companies...

We will work on the presentation recordings these days and we will make it available soon. These past 2 days were really amazing and have spark new friendships and relationships, and new ideas about what we can do in the future. We may even do a Trade-Free Yearly event, but let's see, it is a raw and wild idea now. #tromlive

TROM II is now fully translated into Romanian thanks to @Georgi who worked like crazy for the past months to do it.

It is particularly difficult to translate into Romanian because this language comes in 2 main flavors: the official language and the language that people normally speak. And there can be a big difference between the two.

Georgi tried as much as possible to translate in a way that people talk and not in this official robot-like way. She used Kdenlive for the entire translation process.

Huge amount of work!

Tio:

I kinda finished the presentation for ZDay! 😀 Am happy with it. Around 40 minutes long and I tried to make it fun and interesting and put things in a different perspective from what I did in our previous TROM materials. So even those familiar with TROM may find it, I hope, interesting.

75 slides, and a lot of animated stuff 😀. I LOVE LibreOffice Presentations. Trade-Free software at its best. You can make some really cool presentations with it.

Half the talk will be about what our society is made of. You know, trade...and how it influences everything. The other half is about our trade-free approach. I will also explain The Fediverse, will talk about TROMjaro and our other tools.

These days I need to get ready for the trip. How awesome that I now have a good laptop that I can take with me, thanks mostly to Roma and Gui who donated money so that I can buy it. I definitely use it mostly for TROM.

That's all. I kinda struggled with this presentation and I worked on it quite a lot. But now that it is done I am relieved ;).
