We're so excited to have Jac sm Kee @npub1g4um...wjr3 at our stage! "It is a weird time right now: We have seen how digital technology has become on of the main driver of violence. [...] I imagine a not so far future generation asking us: What have you done about it? The story of tech as being created to dominate over people is exhausting. It is important to be reminded, how critical, radical and revolutionary the open source idea, the community and their projects are in this context."

Prototype Fund is going on! We can now officially confirm that we‘re continuing to fund #OpenSource software projects over the next 4 years. While some things will stay the same, we‘ve also changed a lot: There’s more money for teams, new funding sums and scope. You can apply as an European team as long as one of you lives in Germany and there‘s also no need to (AI) translate your applications anymore, as they are accepted in English too.
