Intel Kills Clear Linux OS After Nearly a Decade

Intel has abruptly ended support for Clear Linux OS, a high-performance Linux distribution it backed for almost a decade. The decision, announced with little fanfare, leaves users scrambling to migrate to alternative distributions like Fedora or Ubuntu. While Clear Linux was praised for its speed and optimization for Intel hardware, it failed to achieve mainstream adoption. The sudden shutdown, without explanation or transition roadmap, serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictable nature of even corporate-backed open-source projects. Users are urged to move immediately to prevent running unpatched software.
