The Omacom Foundation’s funding has just hit $10 million with two new Founding Patrons joining the mission: Drew Houston, cofounder and co-CEO of Dropbox, and Peter Steinberger, creator of OpenClaw.

Like the original eight Founding Patrons, Drew and Peter are each contributing $1 million. That gives the foundation ten patrons and a clean TEN MILLION DOLLARS to propel our audacious mission to make Linux on the desktop happen in a much bigger way.

It’s extra sweet to have Drew and Peter on board because I’ve personally been such a big fan of both of them and their accomplishments. I’ve been an enthusiastic customer of Dropbox for nearly two decades, and it’s central to how I’m able to live with no backup, no cry yet constantly switch computers.

That’s why Omarchy ships with great Dropbox integration out of the box. Just go to Install > Service > Dropbox, and you’ll have file manager integration and a bespoke menu panel for controls.

And OpenClaw has essentially provided the roadmap for how Omarchy should tackle its explosive growth. How do you deal with PR backlogs that suddenly go parabolic? What about security around plugins? How should meetups in the project’s name be handled? I’ve already had the pleasure of drawing on Peter’s advice and experience on several of these topics.

Beyond that, they both represent exactly the kind of technical ambition I want around Omarchy. Drew turned a personal itch about moving files between computers into Dropbox. Peter turned a weekend project into OpenClaw, and in the process reminded everyone just how much appetite there is for computers that feel personal, programmable, and fun.

That’s the spirit behind the Omacom Foundation too. We’re here to fund the infrastructure, open-source projects, and developers needed to make the Linux desktop a delightful home for the next generation of computer users.

Welcome, Drew and Peter. Ten Founding Patrons. Ten million dollars. The prophecy just got another $2 million closer!
