Omacom Foundation launches with $18.5 million

It’s time to dream big. Omarchy Quattro has given people a chance to experience what the malleable computer of the future looks like, and they like it (a lot!). It now feels like a moral obligation to make this future more broadly available and fundamentally change how people relate to their computers for the first time in what seems like forever.

To do just that, I’m incorporating the Omacom Foundation to ensure that this mission is fully funded, durable, and ready to accelerate.

This nonprofit foundation will hold the trademarks, fund the infrastructure, promote the work, and support the open-source projects and developers Omarchy depends on.

These twelve Founding Patrons are each contributing $1 million to this mission:

Tobi Lütke, CEO of Shopify

Patrick Collison, CEO of Stripe

Michael Dell, Chairman and CEO of Dell Technologies

Jack Dorsey, Block Head and Chairman of Block

Matthew Prince, CEO of Cloudflare

Brendan Iribe, Cofounder of Sesame and Oculus

Jason Fried, CEO of 37signals

Drew Houston, cofounder and co-CEO of Dropbox

Peter Steinberger, creator of OpenClaw

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase

Yunjie Dai, cofounder of TapTap

Yours truly

These Founding Corporate Patrons are each contributing $1 million a year for three years or $1.5 million in tokens, with renewal by mutual agreement:

It's like a condensed list of the shittiest of tech people, Sans Google

yeah, google have two OSes they're already holding people captive on.

I can't even get to a boot screen on a family member's chromebook to see if I can replace it with a different OS to ChromeOS. Android is getting demolished as we speak too.

Multiple people mentioned there are on the Epstein list. They probably misheard "kitty exploit" as "kiddy exploit".

If that many evil people/corpos are involved, run as fast as you can the other direction.

Give me community-based distros like Debian, Arch, Mint, etc. I like my Linux democratic, anti-corpo, and inclusive.
