Thats kind of a “yes, and?” sort of statement though.
486 and first gen Pentiums are still supported, though I’d expect not for much longer. But you’re still talking 35 years after release.

It’s funny you mention that.
I’ve been loosely following development around maintaining support for those. (And seeing i686 become the x86 soft target)
It seems we’re entering the era where test units related to these legacy platforms are no longer blockers should they fail. We’re also seeing a mass exodus for support of the x86_64 v1 and v2 feature sets in some distributions and projects.
But that doesn’t mean no one is working on supporting legacy stuff.
