    Pretty much only Debian is left still partially supporting i386. You need to install 12 (currently oldstable) and update to 13.

    My concern would be armhf, being a still supported 32-bit architecture. But I am very sure they are gonna find a way to still keep ESR compiling on it.

      https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#x86 goes as low as i486.

        I am sure Gentoo maintainers will be able to provide a 32-but Firefox recipe just fine. But keep in mind Firefox requires SSE2, and that is an hard requirement of the gecko engine

Rules

While we are not an official Mozilla community, we have adopted the Mozilla Community Participation Guidelines as far as it can be applied to a bin.

Rules

  1. Always be civil and respectful
    Don’t be toxic, hostile, or a troll, especially towards Mozilla employees. This includes gratuitous use of profanity.

  2. Don’t be a bigot
    No form of bigotry will be tolerated.

  3. Don’t post security compromising suggestions
    If you do, include an obvious and clear warning.

  4. Don’t post conspiracy theories
    Especially ones about nefarious intentions or funding. If you’re concerned: Ask. Please don’t fuel conspiracy thinking here. Don’t try to spread FUD, especially against reliable privacy-enhancing software. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Show credible sources.

  5. Don’t accuse others of shilling
    Send honest concerns to the moderators and/or admins, and we will investigate.

  6. Do not remove your help posts after they receive replies
    Half the point of asking questions in a public sub is so that everyone can benefit from the answers—which is impossible if you go deleting everything behind yourself once you’ve gotten yours.
