Linux distros have started to phase out support for 32-bit processors a while back, although the big names aren't doing this yet. Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch Linux, and most of the big ones still provide support for them, although it's starting to take a toll. Fedora is a good example, and one of the developers has explained why it's actually causing them problems.
Fedora is one of the big distros out there, and its developers are aware of the impact of their work. To many users, putting the 32-bit platform on a backburner might not seem like a big deal, but there are still quite a few users out there who use this kind of processors. The problem is that we don't really know how many people are still downloading and installing 32-bit distros in a way that's meaningful for the majority of devs.
