I mean, Clear Linux was the leader in the vast majority of Linux benchmarks, to my knowledge. So much so that even AMD used it in their advertised benchmarks for CPU releases because of the performance advantage.
I think it was quite successful, and I doubt they are shuttering it because they don't see the value in it, but because of overall lackluster company performance and the new CEO cutting costs/the workforce aggressively.
- nine_k 1y agoIt being a Linux distro, I wonder how soon a viable fork will appear.
- bjconlan 1y agoFingers crossed. I probably just did my last fresh install of this a couple of days ago and my last swupd update now. You will be missed...
- Sunspark 1y agoI don't think there will be one, a company would need to commit to salaried devs. What would the value-added proposition be for them that they can't get by using any other distro out there?
- yjftsjthsd-h 1y agoThe problem is that Clear Linux did a lot of tweaking in their packaging to get good performance, up to and including actual code patching IIRC, so it would be a nontrivial ongoing effort to continue that work.
