The branch main has been updated by jhb: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/doc/commit/?id=a477da201351e80d47758c0d143f0199ffbd80ce commit a477da201351e80d47758c0d143f0199ffbd80ce Author: John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> AuthorDate: 2021-01-28 21:27:29 +0000 Commit: John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2021-01-28 21:28:23 +0000 Mark i386 as Tier 2 starting in FreeBSD 13.0. i386 was the first platform supported by FreeBSD and for a long time was the dominant platform. However, it has been supplanted for many years now by amd64 (64-bit x86). i386 now more closely resembles other Tier 2 platforms in terms of userbase and active development.
