Current Ubuntu LTS is 64 bit , only with selected packages for 32 bit apps (Thanks to Steam and Wine apps) https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/06/ubuntu-is-dropping-all-32-bit-support-going-forward Even FreeBSD moved i386 to Tier 2 for FreeBSD 13.x https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-announce/2021-January/002006.html
So in the end my guess 32 bit is only for legacy apps (Think Delphi apps without source code ... ) On Tue, Feb 2, 2021 at 11:17 AM Paul Reeves <pree...@ibphoenix.com> wrote: > On Tue, 2 Feb 2021 11:32:42 +0300 > Alex Peshkoff via Firebird-devel <firebird-devel@lists.sourceforge.net> > wrote: > > > On 2/1/21 10:24 PM, marius adrian popa wrote: > > > My guess old cpus or installs > > > > > > Example got laptop with Windows 10 32 that is still supported by > > > > Microsoft also have an old laptop with Ubuntu 32bit also another old > > > > raspberry pi that is 32 bit only > > > > I doubt all that list is worth having _new_ versions 32 bit. > > > > > > > > Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at > > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel > > > > Presumably the original question implied x86 rather than 32-bit in general. > > I doubt that our user base for 32-bit ARM is really very significant but > 32-bit ARM chips probably have a good future ahead of them. 32-bit x86 > chips > seem to largely have gone the way of 16-bit x86. > > I certainly ask myself the question about x86 quite frequently.
