Thank you Ondine for becoming our new TROM supporter tromsite.com/donate/ - it is so motivating to see new people supporting TROM. Makes you want to put more effort into it, create new things, etc.!
If we get 12 more people to donate 5€ a month we can do these:
We will start a video series for TROM, similar to the books' content.
We will bring back TROMnews because the world needs a good news website.
We will increase the TROM Files storage space to 20GB for all.That would be fantastic!

Great review of TROMjaro from ZDnet - zdnet.com/article/tromjaro-is-…
Amongst AI written, ad driven content nowadays, it is nice to see some genuine reviews. Super happy with the fact that the author also talks about the trade-free idea a bit and even mentions VideoNeat.

Doing TROMjaro work from the motorhome :) forum.tromjaro.com/t/tromjaro-…
This is the first time I get to "properly" use this space for doing some more hardware and internet intensive work. We live in a motorhome from now on for those who do not know. This is it:
We have 650W of solar panels:
Internet satellite and 2 lithium batteries, each of around 1.000W. The download internet speed is quite good, some 20-30 real Mb per second, but upload max at about 1 ...
So, to download the updates to create the ISO is no problem. To compile the ISO itself, also not an issue because we have a lot of power. But to upload 2 ISOs, each of around 4.7Gb was really time consuming. So much so I had to leave the Internet and Laptop on over night.
But it worked and they uploaded. They only ate 30% of our battery capacity overall. Something we can easily put back with solar this next day.
This is our view from a really nice parking lot for motorhomes where you get free water and water disposal facilities :)
We can also charge one of our batteries while we drive with like 500W so in 2 hours we can fully charge one of our batteries just from driving, and we plan to drive for almost 2 hours today.
Therefore, the test was great! Because even if the upload speeds are shit, I can leave the laptop overnight to upload large files.
We have a Peertube channel where we try to upload videos from our adventures - videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide…

TROM in numbers
Some TROM numbers!
Social (friendica): we have 1.100 users and this year it was a record of sane registrations. Still the majority of accounts are likely not active. Our database is around 50GB in size and we store 23GB of files.
Files (nextcloud): we have 100 users and 81 of them are active. We store a total of 370GB of files. We are still able to provide trade-free accounts with 10GB storage space for each.
Chat (matrix): around 500 users, 22GB of files stored and a 200GB database (too big, needs optimization). Unsure how many of these users are active but we are using this for our own TROM chats every single day.
Videos (peertube): 1.400 users, 2.800 videos stored with a total of 400.000 views and 1TB in size. Unfortunately only a few users are active and uploading but this is our main TROM hub for videos and we will do our best to keep it alive and grow it.
In total our TROM.tf provides 17 services and is around 2TB in size. We do daily backups of the system with Timeshift (some 1.2TB) plus daily backups of our files and services to Borg.
—————–
TROMjaro : This year we have coded from ground up our own custom made Layout and Theme Switcher apps and made them better. We are still managing a library of over 600 curated trade-free apps and have released a new ISO almost every single month!
—————–
TROMnews : This year we did a major upgrade to the website. We made it a lot better, more diverse, and relevant. Every month there are thousands of items that are posted to this website.
—————–
VideoNeat : Since 2012 we kept this website relevant and updated. We have over 1.300 documentaries/courses available trade-free!
—————–
Trade-Free Directory : We have over 750 entries in the directory, manually added and reviewed. A must have database of wonderful projects that we will use more in the future. We are trying to add more to the directory whenever we have time.
—————–
TROMSite : Do not forget that we are still providing 2 huge documentaries, over 30 books, and many videos. All trade-free, all full of relevant information. The hope is that we will start to create new content soon!
Lastly, we are almost half way with the support we need to keep these projects alive and relevant! 94 out of 200 people are donating 5 Euros a month! https://tromsite.com/donate Thank you so much!
If we are not going to fight for a different kind of world, offline or online, and walk the talk, then nothing, for sure, will ever change. We are trying to change the online landscape bit by bit, by providing trade-free, saner services, and scientific content. We need this more than ever in today’s idiotic society.

Translating any video in Kdenlive automatically - videos.trom.tf/w/f8WsbH7NpNh7U…
This is how you can translate a video from any language into English using Kdenlive. I tested it with a video spoken in 5-6 languages and it did fantastic. You can also use TROMjaro Linux tromjaro.com/ for easy setup and management of your OS in general.

So Russia blocked Signal - reuters.com/technology/signal-…
"Access to the Signal messaging app is blocked in connection with violation of the requirements of Russian legislation which must be complied with to prevent the use of messaging apps for terrorist and extremist aims,"
So thankful that Russia goes after those extremists using Signal! Russia already has enough on their hands dropping bombs on hospitals and supermarkets and invading other countries! Fuck off extremists!
By the way we ship TROMjaro with a trade-free VPN to bypass these stupidities.
Also: Signal Settings > Privacy > Advanced > Censorship circumvention (on)

A big thank you to the anonymous donor who sent 500 Euros for @roko to buy a laptop. Roko has been helping with our TROM projects for a while now. TROMjaro would not be possible the way it is now without him. He is the one coding our layout and theme switchers and a lot more.
Roko got TROM's "legacy" laptop a year ago :) but unfortunately the motherboard died :(. So he ended up using an old laptop that barely worked. He could barely test stuff for TROMjaro. So he really needed a good machine.
Now he will buy one and will be able to more easily help with the TROM project. We have a lot of plans! Follow us on the fediverse ;)

TROMjaro is alive and well. And we keep it up to date and relevant - tromjaro.com - I love our Linux distro! :) I love when it is stable and just works. And we also ship with so many tweaks you can simply use it. No ads, no trackers, all apps available in Linux from one single place - click and install. I love it. A very positive project indeed :)
