There is a new #friendica app github.com/LiveFastEatTrashRac… - looks super good and I've heard they are promoting our instance too since it is quite lively and reliable.
I only tested the app a bit since I do not use mu phone much, but hey @roko maybe you should give it a try! :) Maybe we finally have a great Friendica app :)
Kudos to the people who are making these things. You are awesome people!

Powerful economic groups, at both national and international levels, have shaped and maintained a trade-based system that prioritises profit over human and ecological wellbeing, thereby undermining attempts to move towards trade-free products and services. Advocates, researchers and campaigners who promote systems based on access, cooperation and sufficiency remain relatively powerless compared with these organised interests.
This suggests that attempting to solve social, health and environmental problems within a trade-based framework—by placing responsibility on individual consumers—is, so far, a largely insufficient response to the question: How can we make a difference?
It also indicates that deeper structural change is required: a transition away from trade-driven production and distribution towards systems organised around shared access, sustainability and collective need. Such a transformation would require confronting entrenched economic power, dismantling profit-centred incentives, and challenging the political structures that sustain the current trade-based society—one which drives many of the problems it claims to solve.

That is great and frustrating at the same time. This "enshitification" is totally a natural result of trading stuff. There is 0 difference between supermarkets putting a 5.99 price on food, or putting candies where people stay in line to pay, or deceiving people with those old ads on TV, and Facebook, Youtube and the like adding clickable ads in the middle of a video or making it play the next video automatically, or not making it clear what is a post what is an ad....
These are trade-based goods and services, and for them to sell, you have to engage in these "marketing" practices.
THIS IS NOTHING NEW!
Pretty much all companies and individuals do these in order to sell shit. All need to be biased towards their own business. Even the local small businesses are doing it. Everyone does it.
So instead of selecting a few of the most outrageous practices, call them shitty, and point the finger at them, better do 2 things:
- Understand why these products are "shitty". It is trade, the need to trade, that makes people put more ads, collect more data, etc.. Currency, data, or attention trade.
- Simply make 2 categories: trade-free and trade-based. If a product or a service is trade-free, it means it does not want anything from you, the user. Not your data, not your currency, not your attention. Therefore why would it want to make that product or service shitty?
Makes no sense.
We made a book all about that - tromsite.com/trombooks/#flipbo… and guess what? It is trade-free. Read it online or download it.
Side note....I like Louis but for fucks sake man start prioritizing a Peertube instance and post there rather than on the "shit" youtube....

Thank you to those who are helping TROM monthly! Our first goal is to reach 100 monthly donors to kickstart a new video series for TROM, bring back TROMnews and provide 20GB storage space for our Nextcloud install (TROM Files) for everyone.
We have a lot of projects and hundreds, if not thousands of people are using our services.
Everything we do is trade-free. No bullshit.
We need 17 more donors to reach our first goal. If you can help please see tromsite.com/donate/
Again thank you to everyone who has supported this project for so many years now!

Great video @thelinuxEXP ! I totally agree that the modern ad-bloated internet is unusable and it will definitely become worse. It is great you demonstrate alternative federated networks and actively use those to share your content too, thank you for that. This is also a very good that you emphasize that YouTube content (or any other content) has never been free and it has always been in return for your data and attention (ads). That is a really good analysis, but I would also like to encorage you to look even beyond that, on the root-cause of this urge for profits, which eventually ruins everything - the incentive to trade. We have to build a society, which fulfills at least basic needs for the people for surviving in this world, so they can have more time to create something meaningful, share with others and enjoy what they are doing (including creating more content they like for the alternative platforms), rather than dying at somewhat jobs just to have food and shelter.
There are TROM project and @tio, who has been arguing for more than 10 years already that The TRADE is the origin of the most problems humanity faces today and that we have to oppose ever-increasing persuit of profit. They recenly released a 5 hours long documentary, describing this problem in great details and discussing the possible solutions to it, such as trade-free movement. I would like to gratefully ask you to spend a bit of your time on it and help to spread the word, since it seems like you are not indifferent to the future of the internet and, I am sure, to the future of humanity too.
