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 eight 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

Yours truly

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!
