in windows that's not a problem, it's common to have 64+32b software
running
So the newest system is 64 bits but can run 32 bits like macOS mojave and earlier, right? Just wanna get it 100% straight. I guess that's the same with Linux, therefore the greatest concern is with macs indeed

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.
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!
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?
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) _______________________________________________ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
