🍞 The First FreeBSD 15 Beta Is Here, and It's Dropping Most 32-bit Devices

「 FreeBSD 15 is also dropping support for most 32-bit devices, following the same change in Debian, Fedora, Windows 11, and other operating systems. That includes armv6 processors, 32-bit x86 CPUs (i386), and 32-bit PowerPC hardware 」

@jbz I had planned to use FreeBSD variant for my 32bit i686 style devices (e.g., Atom N270, Pentium M). Now that path is also closed.

Do you know of any modern *NIX OS that is still committed to supporting historic hardware?
