There are still quite a few 32-bit x86 Linux distributions
The options for 32-bit x86 distributions have been declining a little bit. Some distros have dropped 32-bit support, but quite a few still have it. What remains? And which CPUs do they actually support?
so it sounds like alpine is up, debian sunsetting (really debian support sounds crucial), and arch support is lacking but that would be nice. that would seem to cover a broad base of a lot of linux distros
according to a list of distros
https://infogalactic.com/info/List_of_Linux_distributions
they list 5 main branches: RPM, Debian, Pacman, Gentoo, Slackware, (Source), (Independent)
The very last one doesn't seem like it "needs" representation but I'd think Alpine represents that. Dunno what the second to last one means exactly, like it could be done without, I guess that makes 6 categories.
If OpenSUSE is up then that supports the RPM branch. Pacman is the Arch-related one, already discussed. Gentoo has support, as well as some Slackware.
So all the "branches" of distros have some representation it sounds like
