What are these 32-bit apps people seem to keep running?

If they are games, Boot Camp is an option on Intel macs, and CrossOver [1] is an option on Apple Silicon.

I personally gave up on an old Lightroom version that was pre-CS cloud, and could see more professional people clinging to specific version of apps for whatever reason (private plugins, specific Apple scripts, standardized manual procedures etc.).

There must also be enterprise software that still weren’t recompiled or the vendor went under or threw the towel.

Those are a minority, but sadly we see that on every breaking change.

WXtoImg is what I miss the most. There’s a long tail of unsupported old software with unique capabilities.

I see it's no longer being updated. Does the Windows version[1] work on macOS using Wine/CrossOver?

Yes, it's no longer being updated, which is why we're stuck on the 32-bit version for MacOS.

I've not gotten it to work in Wine/CrossOver, but perhaps someone more skilled than I am could get it to work. I've just used it in virtualized Linux for now.
