I'm looking for alternative overlay network for my workplace to replace my old problematic one and stumble upon netbird, but what stop me from implementing netbird beyond testing is windows 32-bit client. It is a requirement for me, because some of my client computer still use it.

Is it possible to add to the release? Or maybe I should look somewhere else?

Thank you.

Same problem.

Latest GOlang just dropped Windows 7 support. Everything compiled with the new version crashes on Win7 without warning or explanation. 👎
So if there was no Win7-32bit release so far, it will be impossible from now on.

(And it is impossible to reinstall a Win7 32bit POS system. Only trash it and buy new one.)

Conclusion:

  • Most programmers do not care about things like these: link
  • They call this "progress"
  • This ticket can be closed with "never will be solved".
