Ways you can help us
Please consider the following methods to support us if you value what we are doing.
Join Dasharo Matrix Community
We have created Matrix Dasharo Space, an open-source online community, inviting you to join us. Matrix Dasharo Space is a place where you can find solutions to many problems, and if not - our community will gladly help you. We encourage you to troubleshoot your open-source firmware issues there.
Here is invitation link.
Inside you will find multiple rooms. The main discussion happens in "Dasharo - General".
Join Dasharo Beta Testing Group
Dasharo Beta Testing Group is a group of users who help make Dasharo better. They are willing to flash their devicies with Release Candidates (RC) firmware binaries and provide test results by reporting issues or confirming fixes.
Members of this community will have access to invite-only Dasharo Space channel, where calls for testing for the particular, RC versions of firmwares will be announced.
If you want to join the community, please send an e-mail with following information:
- Matrix nickname
- Which Dasharo supported device(s) you are willing to test
Join Dasharo open-source firmware vPub
We encourage you to join us at our vPub parties, which we hold 3-4x / year in "Dasharo OSF vPub." vPub is an alternative to live meeting for those who can't or don't want to meet live. It also served as salvation in times of COVID-19. Our goal is to have a platform for open-source firmware, open-source hardware, and open instruction set architectures discussion in a casual atmosphere.

BTC and other crypto coins
Our company does not currently support payment in cryptocurrencies.
While we understand that cryptocurrencies have gained popularity and recognition in recent years, we have chosen to retain our focus on conventional payment channels.
Firstly, we prioritize financial compliance and adhere to EU regulations. Managing cryptocurrencies would require extensive knowledge and resources to ensure compliance, which we are not equipped to handle at our current stage of development. Moreover, the uncertain and evolving nature of cryptocurrency regulations introduces significant risks and potential vulnerabilities. These factors could potentially lead to fiscal audits that could hamper the operations of 3mdeb and impede the progress of Dasharo development.
We believe that by adhering to established payment methods, we can ensure a consistent and reliable payment process for our customers. This allows us to maintain a high level of security, accountability, and regulatory compliance.
