Mitchell Hashimoto and his family are pledging another $400,000 to the Zig Software Foundation (ZSF), bringing their total pledged support to $700,000. He cites Zig's technical quality, community culture, and principled maintainership — including its strict no-LLM contribution policy — as reasons for continued support. Despite personally using AI heavily and not fully agreeing with ZSF's AI ban, he respects the project's right to set its own culture and standards. He also notes that Ghostty, his own project, was made possible by Zig.
