linux maybe, but distros do drop old architectures. eg debian dropped 32-bit powerpc and older 32-bit intel systems in 2017.

Mainstream distro seem to cater more to corporate use cases these days. But thankfully as you hinted one can always a distro supporting unpopular hardwares.

That's a good thing? If possible I want Ubuntu to drop 32-bit libraries in the near future (and translate calls for any libraries/apps like WoW64), but if I need to run Linux on a 32-bit computer I want Slackware where that remains supported
