Hi. I read this thread yesterday and also read about a post on slashdot: https://linux.slashdot.org/story/25/06/25/2042242/bazzite-would-shut-down-if-fedora-goes-ahead-with-removing-32-bit :
If Fedora drops 32-bit support, the gaming-focused Bazzite project would be > forced to shut down > <https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/06/bazzite-would-shut-down-if-fedora-goes-ahead-with-removing-32-bit/>, > according to its founder Kyle Gospodnetich. "As much as I'd like this > change to happen, it's too soon," said Gospodneitch in a post > <https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/f44-change-proposal-drop-i686-support-system-wide/156324/78>. > "This change would kill off projects like Bazzite entirely right as Fedora > is starting to make major headway in the gaming space. Neal Gompa already > pointed out basic use cases that would be broken even if someone built the > packages Steam itself needs to function." > > He continued: "It's also causing irreparable damage to Fedora from a PR > standpoint. I have been inundated all day with people sharing news articles > and being genuinely concerned Steam is gong to stop working on their > Fedora/Bazzite machines. I would argue not only should this change be > rejected, the proposal should be rescinded to limit further damage to > Fedora as a project. Perhaps open a separate one to talk about changing > build architecture to build fewer 32-bit packages?" > > When pushed further, Gospodnetich said: "I'm speaking as it's founder, if > this change is actually made as it is written the best option for us is to > just go ahead and disband the project."
