SOCIAL
A social network that does not want anything from you: not your data, not your currency, not your attention, nothing. You trade nothing to us. In other words, you won’t find premium subscriptions, data collection, ads, or anything of the sort on this platform. It is, after all, a social network, not an ad-platform!
connect with the world
The Internet is a place of many things:
websites of all kinds, Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, email, photos and videos, podcasts, and what not
And now you can connect/follow anyone!

FILES
A real alternative to trade-based services like Dropbox, iCloud, Google Drive, Google Docs, and more. You can upload any type of files, preview them, convert them, edit them, share them in different ways (to a group of people, publicly, password protected, and more). And with the desktop app, you can sync all of them with your device.
an infinite storage space
Although we only offer 3GB of storage
anyone can attach any external hard drives to it
We understand that 3GB may not be enough, despite the fact that it equals to some 2.000 high quality photos, some 3.000 mp3 files, or several thousand document files. Offering a lot of storage space as trade-free is not possible at the moment because our resources are limited. However, we plan to extend the 3GB limit in time.
The solution? Attach any online hard drives that provide any of the following connections: FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Nextcloud, SMB/CIFS.
Do not worry, this is very easy to do. And if you do not have access to any trade-free external hard drives, then trading currency for them to greatly extend the disk space may be the only solution. If you need any help with settings this up, contact us.

VIDEOS
Here’s a video platform where there are no ads. No data collection. No view counts. No likes and dislikes. No limits, no censorship, and one that even lets you download any video. Too good?
hundreds of thousands of videos
Multiple islands, a lot of users, many videos
because our island has many bridges
To host and deliver millions or billions of videos requires a lot of hardware power and storage. Immense amounts. Big companies can afford this, but in return they charge people with their data, attention, or currency. If we are to provide a trade-free video platform that can scale up, we need to think differently. Welcome to PeerTube, the software behind videos.trom.tf.
Peertube creates islands, and each island can sustain thousands of users or more, and due to the bridges between them, any island is as big as the rest combined. Searching on videos.trom.tf, means searching videos from any other island in a native way.
ALL OF THESE VIDEOS ARE FROM DIFFERENT ISLANDS:
AND YOU CAN WATCH THEM ON VIDEOS.TROM.TF:
we try 'unlimited'
That’s the plan, to not restrict you:
upload, make multiple channels, multiple playlists
It is so easy to upload! And if your videos are on Youtube, Dailymotion, Vimeo, Facebook, or the hundreds of websites on this list, then you can copy-paste the video URL in the Import tab. The title, description, and even hashtags will be imported with your video automatically. And yes, you can even import from torrents or create a Live!
You can have great control over your videos: make them public, private, unlisted, or only displayed locally (on our island).
And embedding and sharing is fun!
embed the entire video
embed only a part of the same video
and more
Because this is more than a simple video platform
- you can subscribe to any channels, regardless of their islands, by creating an account on videos.trom.tf
- you can subscribe to other channels without any account, via RSS/Atom
- you can subscribe to any channel using your federated account (such as social.trom.tf)
- if you have an account, it will remember the timeframe of a video you watched, so you can resume it at any time
- you can mute or block any accounts, so you can control what you watch
- we have a 1GB network, so video streaming should be quite fast
- we have p2p enabled, which means that anyone who watches a video becomes a seeder for others watching it
- you can add annotations to any video
- you can add subtitles to any video
- you can download any video in any available formats, directly or via torrents
- you can add a 'support' button for all of your videos
SEARCH
A search engine that removes the trades from most popular search engines out there, allowing you to have a trade-free experience. Find websites, scientific articles, images, videos, files, etc..
To make a search engine is very hardware and bandwidth intensive. This is why our search engine is using the existing search engines and strips away all of the trades, so you (the user) do not have to trade currency, your data, or attention to any of them.
more powerful than Google
Because it is using Google….
and Bing, and Yandex, and Duckduckgo, and Yahoo, and more
IMAGINE TAKING ALL OF THESE SEARCH ENGINES (AND MORE):
AND MERGING THEM INTO A MEGA SEARCH ENGINE:
And on top of that, removing all of the ads, trackers, sponsored links, and all that crap.
search anything
And choose your settings
Preview images and music, download files from torrents, find places on the Open Street Map, have access to cached (saved) versions of websites; Wiki cards, RSS subscriptions for results, search suggestions, and more.
