Open Source Pledge ⇌
@ThePledge
Open Source Pledge is a group of companies with a shared commitment to paying the maintainers of the Open Source software we all consume.


1/5 Today we're launching the Open Source Endowment (OSE) — the world's first endowment fund dedicated to sustainably funding critical open source software. 🌱 $750K+ raised. 60+ founding donors. Built to last forever. endowment.dev 🧵


Open source quietly powers everything from your terminal to your favorite frameworks, yet maintainers are often underfunded. In 2025, CodeRabbit distributed over $600,000 directly to OSS maintainers, and we’re just getting started!

We're joining @sentry's @ThePledge, giving away $100K to open source this quarter Sponsoring: @vite_js @tan_stack @tailwindcss @caddyserver @DrizzleORM @FastAPI @letsencrypt Railway should be the best place to grow OSS. blog.railway.com/p/funding-open…






Last fall I set out to put my belief in Open Source to the test. What is Open Source? What does it *mean* for our world today? I met dozens of people across three continents ... “Gift Community” is the documentary I'm bringing back, on January 20. (WARNING: Trailer starts with an air raid alarm!)

Some power up with caffeine, we power up with open-source! Proud @ThePledge supporters, backing @ThePHPF, @PHPUnit & @Xdebug to keep the PHP world running fast! tideways.com/profiler/blog/…




Like the rest of the internet, Sentry runs on Open Source. Like the rest of the @ThePledge companies, we also believe in paying it back. In 2025, we gave out $750k to the OSS projects we rely on; here’s a sampling of some of them, and why they are so crucial 🧵
