We now have 6 servers dedicated to transcoding/transcribing our Peertube videos videos.trom.tf - thanks to @alexio who is providing 4 of them! Peertube is now a complete replacement for Youtube and I will make sure to push it a lot more in terms of use and promotion! We need to get people to use it, else without content, it won't go anywhere....

Feel free to use our instance!

When you hear me talk about Small Tech and Big Tech or Small Web and Big Web, you might think it’s some sort of contest or something.

It’s really not.

Last year, roughly $315,000,000,000 in venture capital was invested in Big Tech.

Roughly €4,764 (€397 monthly donations to Small Technology Foundation × 12) was invested in Small Tech/Small Web.

That’s 0.000001% of venture capital alone invested in Big Tech.

Statistically, we don’t exist.

We’re a rounding error.

we should have an international "switching software" day, https://switching.software/

Good morning! No trillion-dollar corporation is your friend. Here’s wishing you a lovely day :)

Hey people, wanted to thank you all for supporting TROM every month tromsite.com/donate/ ! We still need a lot more help but little by little maybe we can achieve the 200 for TROM goal! Thank you!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but don’t be the douchebag oiling the gears of fascism.

Tech folks… tech folks need to hear this.

I am excited and honored to announce that I am now an official Ambassador for the @Vivaldi web browser!

This is a browser I've been using for about 8 months now and absolutely love everything about the browser itself as well as the team that makes it and the community they have built.

I couldn't be happier to endorse a browser that works as great and as quick as Vivaldi!
