1Password and 37signals become Distinguished Corporate Patrons

The Omacom Foundation has its first two Distinguished Corporate Patrons! 1Password and 37signals are each contributing $100,000 a year for the next three years, which takes the foundation’s funding to $12.6 million.

1Password has been part of Omarchy from day one (and part of Omakub before that!). Because it’s kept my credentials safe for many years before switching to Linux was even a twinkle in my eye.

Like Dropbox, it’s one of the essential tools to enable the no backup, no cry method. Whenever I set up a new machine (which is about three times a week these days!), the first thing I do is Install > Service > 1Password. Then setting up my agents, logging into Basecamp and HEY, and everything else is just trivial. Yet perfectly safe, perfectly secure.

37signals has been the incubation station for Omarchy since before it had a name. We’ve already switched the whole technical team over to Omarchy, and we’ve been footing all manner of bills on the road to Quattro (and before). Now the support is formal, through the foundation, on the same terms as everyone else.

It’s worth noting, too, that corporate money and individual money all buy the same thing: recognition for being part of the mission. There’s no quid pro quo here.

Omarchy will always base its decisions on what makes for the very best malleable OS in the world. And that’s even more specifically defined with the “by DHH” byline when you install the system. Before this can be an amazing system for everyone, it first has to be an amazing system for me, personally. Put your own mask on first and all that!
