I'm in. They’re working on an open-source operating system (e/OS) that prioritizes privacy and digital freedom, which I know many here are passionate about. It’s based on the Android Open Source Project but without the Google integration.
Murena has some ambitious goals, like hyperscaling active users and selling nearly 20K phones by next year. They’ve also partnered with sustainable phone manufacturers like Fairphone and Teracube, which aligns well with their ethos.
They’re already in overfunding territory, having raised €534K+ against a €400K target, so there’s clearly some momentum here. Given the growing concerns around data privacy and the monopolistic tendencies of Big Tech, Murena’s approach feels timely and necessary.
Just thought I’d share since privacy-respecting tech alternatives don’t come around every day.
