Is this really the plan? :(
Has this been discussed anywhere?
I understand that supporting multiple architectures can be a burden
and that we don't nearly have the manpower behind Linux, and I'm
certainly not signing up to support anything myself (nor do I have the
required expertise to...), but I absolutely agree with you that having
more diversity in supported/used configurations (not just one ISA, not
just Debian) would be beneficial. I've already seen SerenityOS drop
32-bit support, and anyone involved can attest I was not happy about
it.
