Point of clarification: we don’t sponsor Omarchy. We did sponsor Rails World, which is put on by the Rails Foundation, because our site is built on Rails. Our full set of sponsorships is here: https://frame.work/blog/framework-sponsorships

You promoted Omarchy repeatedly on Twitter (much moreso than other distros) and DHH repeatedly promoted Framework in kind. You sent DHH a development device for Omarchy. It's worth noting that DHH is also the chair of the board of the Rails Foundation.

So whether it's a sponsorship on your list or not, it's much cozier than I would care to be with someone who holds these views.

Even apart from DHH's controversy, I was really puzzled by Framework's online hype-manning of Omarchy. As a consumer and Linux user it made me wary of the Framework brand and uncertain of the project's goals. Promoting a downstream niche project like that is cart-before-horse behavior, my next laptop will be a COTS machine until Framework can sort out their professional ambitions.
