Omacom Foundation Launches with $8M
The Omacom Foundation has launched with $8 million in funding from eight patrons to support open-source development and promote the 'malleable computer' concept. The foundation aims to advance the vision of a user-centric, open computing future.
Why it matters
Large-scale philanthropic funding for open-source infrastructure can significantly influence the trajectory of software development and desktop computing standards.
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.
