I think you are joking, but it helps not to confuse the three big forks

1. Linux / GNU / X, this is the fork Devuan is on and few Devuan
installs are on ARM. At this late date, there probably aren't many on
x86_32 either. Which is why discussion of eliminating a big chunk or
archive space and compile time will continue to recur until eventually
nobody can muster a good argument for continuing.

2. Linux / Android, that is what is on most "smart" phones, "smart"
TVs, tablets, etc.

3. Linux / RedHat, SystemD and the rest of RedHat OS, found on too many
former LGX distros.
