Framework supports free open-source software and becomes KDE's latest
patron!

Framework manufactures and sells modular computers that are easy to
maintain, repair and upgrade. By sponsoring FLOSS projects like KDE,
Framework further confirms their commitment to to putting users in
control of their machines.

"KDE is extremely popular in the Framework community, and we're
excited to help support KDE's efforts to make the best possible Linux
desktop." says Nirav Patel, Founder of Framework.

"I am excited to see Framework become a KDE Patron," says Aleix Pol,
President of KDE e.V.. "It's a good continuation to our collaboration
with different hardware manufacturers and distributors to ensure we
can deliver systems to our users with an experience up to our
expectations. Furthermore, Framework's commitment to repairability
strongly aligns with our values and is vital for building a more
sustainable industry."

Framework joins KDE e.V.'s other patrons: Blue Systems, Canonical,
g10 Code, Google, Kubuntu Focus, Mbition, Rocky Linux, Slimbook,
SUSE, Techpaladin, The Qt Company and TUXEDO Computers, who
generously support FOSS and KDE's development through KDE e.V.
