Isn't 32 bit support also being talked about being dropped from the kernel...? 32 bit is dead. It's not like we will support 16 but processors.

Yes but there is still a retro scene using original hardware. It's nice to have full internet capabilities.

i was wondering who would still be doing this and your comment reminded me of those youtube videos where people get macos 7 and windows 3 online.

That's not strictly true. They're dropping certain features of 32-bit but not dropping 32-bit entirely.

Desktop 32 bit is dead pretty much already. The applications are in the IoT and sever space.
