I honestly think a no strings grant is different from funding to do a stated task.
But I’m not exactly up to speed on if you his was a no strings grant. However that’s what it sounded like, as a way to try to legitimize the fascist funding group.

So Framework has been sponsoring various Linux projects for at least a year. In the summer last year they announced they were sponsoring Omarchy, an Arch Linux distribution tightly run by DHH (creator of Ruby on Rails, owns Basecamp, and a billionaire). DHH has been known to be politically incorrect with some concerning views. Last summer he wrote a blog post about how London wasn’t the city he remembered because it was full of non-native brits and has been supporting anti-immigrant/alt right politicians. I do not know more than that, or whether he supports nazis explicitly, but it’s a bad look that has rightfully upset a lot of people.
