Intel has discontinued Clear Linux OS, instructing users to migrate without any grace period. This decision aligns with the company's restructuring under new management after facing a decline in market position. Clear Linux OS, designed primarily for Intel hardware and initially focused on cloud applications, garnered a niche following due to its performance and unique architecture. With the repo transitioning to read-only, future development will require a fork, though the impact of its closure on the broader market is expected to be minimal.
Intel has abruptly killed off Clear Linux OS, ending Chipzilla's decade-long adventure in this part of the Linux world.
Users are instructed to migrate as quickly as possible, since Intel will no longer be patching, updating, or maintaining the OS.
Clear Linux OS was optimized for Intel silicon and aimed at cloud workloads, but also found its way onto the desktop.
The Clear Linux OS repository is to be archived in read-only mode, meaning that a fork will be required if anyone chooses to continue it.
