@Nonardo Games are supposed to use Steam Runtime lib on Linux or ship their library. Steam allow for running with previous version of the Steam Runtime.

Steam move last week was concerning. This is straight bad. There were some amazing game on the lot. Sure some of the game delisted were creepy, but there were games that figure relationship more healthy than most of the relationship in the literature. Just kinky and horny.*

I have a mixed feeling about that. I'm not against some kind of regulation on content, but I'm not keen on US prudish moral deciding what I should not play.

Neither Ubuntu nord Bazite has any link with Red Hat still both of them dont want to maintain 32 bits as well.
The point is not about RedHat it's about distributions that have trouble managing 32 bits when they don't have long release cycle nor rolling release.
Having 32 bits support in a software that can be shared by all the distro with a slower release cycle may be one of the solution Fedora is talking about.

The proposal was not to break gaming on Linux, rather than not having the whole load of 32 bits maintenance on the distro maintainers.

Distro maintainer is a tough job, and they did not get much credits for that, but they got a lot of flak whenever they try to reduce the load to a more manageable level (dropping xorg, using systemd,...). Maintaining a distro is increasingly complex and the wear of it has caused the death of many great distros. By all mean, maintainers deserve their propositions to be received charitably.

As for the proposed change, I think we need a dedicated emulation project for legacy 32 bits software, much like proton for games, XWayland for X11 built on Wayland, and so forth. It is not a Fedora issue, it is a distro maintainer issue and I can see a future where only Debian, Arch, their derivative and smaller-scope distro focused on 32 bits compatibility still have 32 bits (Arch because of its manpower, Debian because it ships a major version every 5 years).

It seems to me there is a lot of bad faith reaction to a statement of intend aiming to find solution for when critical upstream package will stop suporting 32 bits.

That's how I interpret

And it’s better to start planning for the removal of i686 packages now than when (insert foundational package here - for example, CPython) stops supporting 32-bit architectures and we need to scramble to adapt.
