   NO MORE #32BIT #WINE FOR RUNNING 32-BIT #WINDOWS PROGRAMS :alice_pog:
   
   I REPEAT, NO MORE 32-BIT WINE :alice_pog:
   
   Cheers to a future of #Linux without a hybrid 32/64-bit install! :alice_wine:

     @mima They need to reimplement 16 bit support and then we'll be set for life

     @mima Probably not. Most of the 32 bit dependencies get pulled in for Steam runtime stuff relating to native Linux games, not Wine itself.

     Like seriously this is one of the things I hated the most in #Linux. If you wanna run #Windows programs in #Wine you essentially need to have both a 32-bit and 64-bit userland. So 32 and 64-bit libc and other essential libraries Wine needs... That's definitely gonna lead to #dependencyhell in the future once you have to do a major system upgrade :koishtare:
     
     I'm glad we can do away with that! :alice_wine:
     
     Oh and with this good news I guess it's not that far-fetched to imagine i386/i686 getting fully deprecated on all Linux #distros (including #Debian proper) huh? :sagume_think:

     @mima Eh, I can't be bothered too much by it. Also when you said Debian in the earlier post, distributions like Debian and Slackware will continue maintaining 32 bit versions as long as there is interest from a substantial portion of their userbase (which there will be for quite a while yet)

     @allison@hidamari.apartments Oh right, I forgot about #Steam...
     
     #Valve pls move on from #32bit already :renko_cry: :RumiaPray:
