I feel like it's been forever since I used a truly 32-bit desktop environment, and even then over a decade ago it was only because someone mistakenly installed the 32-bit version on a 64-bit capable chip.

Any system now that is 32-bit only shouldn't be and probably lacks the performance to browse the modern web.

All 3 users of systems that don't support 64bit will be devastated. Once they finish loading the news anyway

I didn't think it would ever get to the point that the average co sumer doesn't have to use anything 32-but but it seems like we're slowly reaching that point.

We went past that point many years ago. This is way overdue.
