32 BIT Hosting #187
Comments
Thank you so much for taking the time to test the bot 32 bit versions. I'm sure this will help users who intend to run the bot on 32 bit 👍 I'm going to pin this issue to make your findings visible to everyone |
The Raspberry Pi's Arm6/7 are 32-Bit Linux(Debian 10 variant) systems that work fine(a.k.a Raspberry OS 10/Raspian 10) only adding this here because it is pinned |

Due to 32bit systems not really existing anymore, and several hosting options availble, please, never use 32bit. not worth the hassle RPi is still viable. Please refer to #480 and #490

This is a summary of findings if the bot will run on 32 bit system, and how well it would perform
32 Bit Linux
Impossible to run on ANY 32 bit linux. The reason is a node.js version! Last official build of node.js is version 4 and its predecessors. it is possible to install a node.js version UP TO v12.xx by installing it from community - driven ''Unofficial builds'', which would be sufficient for the bot(tested all linux releases from v10.0 to v12), but these build suffer from poor perfomance (up to 6000 miliseconds of lag on simple input) no matter the PC Strenght, so good luck running it on this. To add to this these unofficial node versions are very unstable, and if you let them throttle your pc for too long, they can reach a integer overflow issue related to the 32bit platfom which leads to a complete freezing up and occasionaly a BSOD
32 Bit Windows
It is possible to run the bot on 32 bit windows, tested:
Conclusion
If anyone want to host this bot on a 32 bit system, i recomend using Windows 7 or server2008, and use some kind of to you friendly server setup to be able to acces the bot from another computer. Both these versions are 100% compatible with offical support to all the needed software. Please do not use Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code to run the bot! this itself drains a lot of the hardware power, and the bot would not run smoothly and fast. use external command line i/o or the default windows one if you please.
