@debian@lemmy.ml

Debian 13 drops support for i386, which is bad news for my parents’ laptops. I don’t have the time to help them hop on a different distro right now, but I wonder if anybody here is in the same boat.

@VoidLinux@chaos.social and @alpinelinux@fosstodon.org, my two faves, still offer support. FreeBSD demoted i386 to tier 2 in 2021. What else is out there?

    There is a way of doing the update manually iirc, they just don’t package the Debian installer for x84-32 anymore
