Jack Dorsey is a tech executive who donated $1 million to the Omacom Foundation, which supports his Linux distribution Omarchy, and he leads Block, the company that released the AI agent app Berd.
Jack Dorsey appears in two distinct roles across recent Yomimono coverage. As a donor, he is one of eight tech figures who each gave $1 million to the Omacom Foundation, the non-profit launched by David Heinemeier Hansson to back the Omarchy Linux distribution. The foundation opened with $8 million in total donations and holds Omarchy's trademark, funds infrastructure, and supports dependent open-source software.
Separately, Dorsey is identified as the leader of Block, the company that released Berd, an AI agent app. Berd lets users manage multiple AI agents as characters, assign tasks to each one, and includes task lists, notes, and a model switcher. It is being developed as an open-source project on GitHub.
The two stories do not link these efforts; they simply place Dorsey in the context of both a Linux foundation and an AI software release. No further details about Dorsey's personal involvement or his own companies beyond Block are provided.
