It’s time to rip off the bandaid and force everyone to get on the bandwagon. What’s a single reason to keep 32 bit packages? It’s dragging Linux down in general to have such zealotry about compatibility with things built in 1994
They don't take up much space and mostly just require compile time.
That'd be the main reason to keep them around.
As far as the drag on linux, AFAIK there's really no drag caused by having 32bit binaries floating around. There's more drag in supporting really old architectures like the Pentium 2.
I wish Fedora was in it's own bubble where its decisions didn't affect anything else but as we've seen numerous times what happens in Fedora eventually cascades through the other major distro's as well.
Perhaps not every package is needed, but you need some 32-bit support for games.
>> Linux distro developers may not like it, but Steam is huge and requires 32-bit to work properly for the client and for Proton / Wine.
