8 articles • Started 5 months ago • Last updated 5 months ago

Apple announced macOS 27 Golden Gate at WWDC26 on June 8, marking the end of Intel Mac support. The new operating system requires Apple Silicon chips, making it incompatible with all Intel-based Macs and formally concluding Apple's decade-long transition away from Intel processors. The move affects app compatibility and forces users with older Intel machines to decide whether to upgrade or remain on earlier macOS versions, with Apple providing a three-year exit plan for the transition.
