The article title is “Debian Likely Moving Away From i386 In The Near Future” but according to the article Debian will drop i386 support because it will be dropped from the kernel. Seems like bad news for permacomputing folks.
(EDIT) modified the title since it seems more accurate to say that 32-bit support is being dropped. (reference)

At least operating systems like FreeDOS and NetBSD will still be supporting 32 bit platforms for a while. Also, ELKS is incredible if you’re interested in 16 bit Linux.
Thanks for the feedback… that’s good news considering I recently bought a 2nd-hand NAS that’s 32bit.
