Omacom Foundation launches with $14.95 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:

These Distinguished Patrons are each contributing $100,000 to the mission:

And these Distinguished Corporate Patrons are each contributing $100,000 a year for three years:

This Founding Token Patron is contributing $1.5 million in tokens to the mission:

And these Distinguished Token Patrons are each contributing $150,000 in tokens:

This is a ridiculous sum of money, so I intend to make sure it lasts a long time, and that we make the most of it. But just as important as the incredible cushion is the vote of confidence delivered by these pledges.

We’re going to make the prophecy of The Year of Linux on the Desktop come true. All the pieces are now in place. Time to go all in!
