Some TROM.tf cleanup:
- We will remove https://sketch.trom.tf/, https://diagrams.trom.tf/ and https://office.trom.tf/ . These services already exist via our TROM Files https://files.trom.tf/ . No point in wasting server resources for the same services.
- We closed any new registrations for https://git.trom.tf/ . This service can be easily abused and we do not have the resources to deal with that. We accept new registrations but only for "friends". For people who we know or we can check to make sure they will not abuse the service.
- We will remove https://meme.trom.tf - Probably no one uses that little service anyway.
More cleanup to follow!

I'd say it's a good idea to drop some of the projects that put too much toll on you, and have some time to relax and enjoy life while you have it 😀

We've added a new service to our TROM.tf: TROM Translate - https://translate.trom.tf/
An alternative front-end for Google Translate, serving as a Free and Open Source translator with over a hundred languages available and text-to-speech.
We've tried LibreTranslate with self-hosted translation models, but it is very slow and lacks a lot of languages....for now we will stick to this Google Translate interface. This tool should be useful for those who will start to make subtitles for the TROM II documentary.
Enjoy!

Introducing Apple Vision Pro https://ytb.trom.tf/watch?v=TX9qSaGXFyg
Or how you can make a "cool" video about a nonsense product, showing people doing the same lame tasks over and over again. Browse their photo albums, playing video games, watching movies. This time with a huge thing strapped on their faces.
Apple, the Sad Vision.
How about people having real and sane relationships, enjoying the nature, not buying shit!?
This company has a fruit as the name, but is doing nothing "natural" or healthy.
Such a lame video. A failed product anyway. But scary to see that there are many people who think this is "wow so cool".
Ok, bye.

A new TROMjaro release is out https://forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-2023-06-04/176
We have a little surprise, the integration of @TBlock into the system! We named it Internet Content Blocker, and it is basically an ad/tracker blocker that works system-wide. Super cool and super useful and in line with our trade-free approach.

And it boggles my mind to think that all those good quality food would've gone to waste if it wasn't for organizations like this. 40% of all food produced in the world is lost in one way or another?! Now that is a hauntingly high number, we should try to reduce it as much as possible. Thank you Dima for finding such organizations, helping them, and shining a light on them through your videos.

@Rokosun Thank you !
It's indeed crazy how much food are wasted. Yeah about 40%. Interesting fact that 60% out of those 40% are wasted in households. That was huge discovery for me, i was sure that supermarkets and production facilities waste the most. Which was true some time ago, but now it's changed.

TROM Presentation at Atlantykron 2022 https://videos.trom.tf/w/rToaoUqGZATe2Knewcbtvw
@Alexio gave a presentation at https://atlantykron.org and showcased the many tools that we have.
"The Atlantykron Project is a living experiment of education in nature. The academy brings together world leading experts, the latest learning tools and technologies, and youth from many countries. This combination of teaching, learning and living in a natural and wild environment creates an educational and life experience like no other. "
Unfortunately the presentation is only in the Romanian language. We have added subtitles in different languages but they are auto-translated so they are likely not that great. In any case, the important thing is that Alexio did the presentation. We need more Alexio's!
Anyone can present TROM everywhere they can. This helps us spread the core message of the project, that trade is the source of most problems. And to also showcase the many trade-free tools that we have.
Thank you Alexio!

https://webape.site is a new service that offers managed #hosting of #mastodon and #peertube instances. They also offer #nextcloud installations and #wordpress websites too. Their price is really cheap compared to other similar services.
You can find them on the fediverse at @webape

- We've added https://tasks.trom.tf/ - a complete Trello trade-free alternative.
- We've added https://sketch.trom.tf/- a simple and useful online sketch whiteboard. Draw together with others and share your drawings.
- We've added another one https://scratch.trom.tf/ geared towards learning programming and creating animations.
- We moved yt.trom.tf to the original ytb.trom.tf. Do not worry, they are linked so it does not matter which one you use.
As you can see we are adding new trade-free services. Thanks to the people who donate to TROM. Now we have 27 trade-free services that are well maintained. So if you can, please donate to TROM here https://www.tromsite.com/donate/ to keep these services alive and relevant, and add more in the future.
We will make some "info" pages for some of these newly added services, soon. Enjoy! #tromlive

I kept on saying to people that DDG is a potential risk simply because it engages into TRADES. They wanted you, the user, to click their ads. And all of the "but hey we don't track you at least..." was of course a marketing strategy. Selling their search engine to these "privacy oriented" folks. Privacy-washing. Even tho I was not aware of this practice I was kinda sure they will eventually fuck things up, simply because whenever you engage into trades, sooner or later you will fuck things up.
So yeah, it seems this theory of trade, it being the originator of most problems, still holds very much true. I do not trust any trade-based service. Period. #tromlive

Our TROM.tf server's diskspace is getting kinda full. We have a ton of services so this is to be expected. We are trying to be more restrictive with our Peertube instance so that we may be able to remove more content that does not fit the thematic. When we reach 80% diskspace full we will need to do something about it.
We can migrate our Peertube storage to an object storage. Maybe we will do a campaign to raise the funds for that. May be as low as 250 Euros for a year of 2TB storage. That is twice as much as we have for Peertube right now. And we can free up some space on the server for Nextcloud and other services. Right now Peertube takes up about 70% of the storage on the server.

We re-installed TROMjaro on @Sasha 's laptop. She was using the old Gnome version. All worked great. So smooth. Only 2 errors that were not as important but we fixed them and seem to be related with calamares + BTRFS. This and this.
But yeah. TROMjaro is still maintained and improved. And works great.
Our trade-free operating system. I encourage you to try it too! :) #tromlive

Call me crazy but I still think that these morons, all of them, created a very tense situation with the war in Ukraine and it is likely to blow up into something significant.
I predict WW3 in the coming months/years :D .
But hopefully I'm very wrong. I am continuing my work on TROM as usual tho. Despite these thoughts that I have. I, for sure, want to make a TROMcast about the situation and we are trying to invite some people who are close to the conflict. Let's see.
