SpaceXAI backs Omarchy, the controversial Linux distro, with $1.5 million in compute

SpaceXAI is donating $1.5 million in Grok tokens to fund development of Hansson's Omarchy Linux distro.

SpaceXAI is joining the Omacom Foundation, which oversees the Omarchy Linux distribution, as a Founding Corporate Patron. It is donating $1.5 million in Grok tokens that David Heinemeier Hansson says will mainly speed development, code review, and bug fixes. Hansson, creator of Ruby on Rails, has drawn backlash for anti-immigration posts, and earlier contributions from 1Password and Cloudflare were also criticized.

DigitalOcean Ends Open Source Credits Program

DigitalOcean is quietly ending its Open Source Credits program and stopping new or renewed credits.

DigitalOcean is sunsetting its Open Source Credits program without a public blog post, telling projects including Node.js that new applications, renewals, and extensions will not be approved. Existing credits can still be used, after which projects must pay or move infrastructure. Node.js maintainers discussed dropping DigitalOcean branding, after which the company reportedly re-engaged about a more selective program version 2.0. DigitalOcean also dropped GitHub Student Pack credits earlier and recently donated $3 million to the Omacom Foundation behind Omarchy Linux.
