Keep in mind, the last PowerPC (G5) chipset used was 64bit, and all Intel chips used after late 2006 were 64bit.
It does means that some legacy games that are only available in 32-bit binaries will no longer work though.
Which is a ton of older (and still fun) games.
Just on MacOS though, I don't think Windows will be dropping 32 bit support ever.
watch them work just fine in proton (i don't actually know if that works but i wouldn't be the least surprised)
Proton does not work on macOS, just Linux.
Nice! I'm never getting a device with macOS on it.
