questions for 32 bit developers
Posted: Fri Sep 04, 2020 9:53 pm
hi all
i just have some questions for our developers of 32 bit systems
as a user
my needs are simple
my hardware doesn't change
the only thing i need to be periodically updated is the browser and media player
in fact i don't want the base system to change if it works well on my hardware
it would seem that the base could remain unchanged
and any new stuff could be made into an sfs
and added if desired
then if it didn't work just unload the sfs
also of the major distros
debian still supports 32 bit
is slackware another good option
it would be nice to know what 32 bit systems the devs intend to continue to support
so that us users could focus on them
my opinion is that probably eventually everything will become 64 bit
but i don't think that will happen for some years
and the hardware i am using can run 32 bit until then
any thoughts
