<div>So y'all can also answer me why you need 32 builds of
windows/linux, if it has to do with externals only being
available for 32 bits. Cause my main concern is to
upgrade "relevant" libraries. But I mentioned macOS
cause that's where I can really help most.</div>

<div>We all know new macOS systems are 64 bits only. Now we
have the new M1 chips that I believe CANNOT run older
systems. Therefore, 32 bits is deprecated!</div>

<div>Now, I don't know what's the deal with PCs. I guess
anyone can get any new PC computer and run Pd 32 bits if
they want/need, right? I guess I need to ask: What's the
deal with windows/linux? Do any of you suffer with 32 vs 64
bits issues? Like needing a 64 bit system and not having 64
bit externals for Pd or whatever?</div>

<p>in windows that's not a problem, it's common to have 64+32b
software running. I doubt that any 32b hardware is still being
produced, maybe there's some in the 2nd hand market (I also have 2
mac powerpcs at home, but don't use them, and probably it's not
worth it to consider these relevant)<br>
