What happened

Today it was announced that SpaceXAI would be joining the Omacom Foundation, which oversees Omarchy, as a Founding Corporate Patron and donating $1.5 million worth of Grok tokens to David Heinemeier Hansson's Linux project. According to Hansson's blog post announcing the partnership, the tokens will primarily be used to accelerate development, review code, and patch bugs. If Elon Musk and SpaceXAI were going to back any Linux distro, it seems obvious they'd back Omarchy.
