Vote for your next Board of Directors!

Hi Rebblers,

This is just a short blog post to say: voting is now open for the Rebble Foundation’s next Board of Directors! As I mentioned in our last blog post, the Rebble Foundation is the non-profit organization that keeps Rebble running, and the Board of Directors is a group of five people, elected by Rebblers like you; the Board steers how Rebble uses its resources and sets goals for Rebble over the next year. The vote is a ranked choice ballot – you can vote for as many candidates as you like, and your vote is of course anonymous.

On a personal note, this election makes me really excited about the future of Rebble. I’m taking (at least) a year off from serving on the Board, but seeing that we have 12 amazing candidates who want to serve Rebble makes me really hopeful – and I’m particularly excited to see a variety of different opinions and focuses on what Rebble should do next. The hardest part about this election for me is that I had to come up with an order to rank so many good candidates in!

Anyway, this is your opportunity to shape what Rebble becomes next, and I really would like to encourage that you take it! Voting is open to all Rebble users with accounts older than February 16th, 2026; voting is open through the end of the day March 9th. And as a special incentive, if you vote in the election, and then send me an e-mail with your mailing address, there is a very good chance that I will mail you a special “I voted” sticker…

So, please participate in the Rebble Board election! The future of Rebble is bright – and it’s yours to make.

All the best,
joshua

Nominate yourself for the Board of Directors!

Hi, there! For those of you who have been following the Rebble Dev Forum, you might have noticed that we’re gearing up for elections for the Rebble Foundation Board of Directors! I’m writing this blog post to tell you that self-nominations for the Board are now open for the next two weeks, and that you (yes, you, dear reader!) should run for a seat on the Board!

As many of you know, the Rebble Foundation is the non-profit organization that keeps Rebble running. The general idea of a non-profit is that, instead of shareholders, investors, or owners, we have bylaws and a Board of Directors that governs how we do our work. Since we don’t have shareholders, the Board is responsible solely to Rebble’s mission, rather than trying to make money for anyone in particular. In order for that to happen effectively, we depend on everyday members of the Rebble community to step up and guide that work!

So if you’re interested in that kind of thing, well, this is the post that has more information for you – read on.

A peek into the future: microPebble on iOS

In my previous blog post about Rebble’s finances this year, I alluded to the idea of Rebble commissioning a port of Matej Drobnič (matejdro)’s microPebble to iOS. I promised I’d write more about that soon – and luckily for you, soon is now! The most important piece of information is, of course, “yes! we’re doing it!”, but I have a fair bit more to say about it, including: why we think microPebble is important; what we’re doing to make microPebble possible on other platforms; and where we want to go with microPebble in the future. I think it’s very exciting, and I hope you will too!
