    I think Apple dropped some stuff that would make it so 32 but apps wouldn’t work and a ton of games are 32 bit apps. But I’m not sure if they actually did that or just talked about it.

      They did it since at least 2 OS version. It is impossible to run a 32 bit software on latest MacOS unless you keep an older version on dual boot. Or Linux but it is still a dual boot.

      From memory it did not had a huge impact, most 32 bit software or games are old enough that you slowly start to forget about it and just use something else.

        It’s just so clunky to have to jump through those hoops.
