The end of 32-bit apps is a long time coming.
YES, of course, Windows 10 and Windows 11 can run 32-bit apps. But with the growing lack of a 32-bit operating system, 32-bit specific apps will be developed less overtime. The same thing happened to 16-bit and 8-bit too.
I do not expect any operating system to 100% drop 32-bit support anytime soon. Unlike 16 or 8-bit, 32-bit lasted for 30 year or so. There will be a need for legacy support for than a while (years to come). But I do expect fewer 32-bit apps overtime.
