While not as ubiquitous as the two big ones, there *are* #FPGA vendors that embrace #FOSS toolchains. So, given #AMD's license blunder with #vivado free version not available for #Linux anymore, I'll push for companies like #CologneChip wherever I can (which is also #digitalsoveignty for those who care): https://colognechip.com/

My GateMateA1-EVB from Olimex arrived yesterday and after successfuly synthesizing Michael Schroeders Space Invaders Game a few days ago I tried running it today and it works like a champ. Sooo cool. 🎉 The first time I could synthesize a CPU. 🤩
