Hooray to Gentoo, Void, Adelie & Debian which continue supporting (older) PowerPC! \o/
Gentoo and Adelie support any 32bit/64bit PowerPC the Linux Kernel supports (>=PowerPC 603+?)
Void does ppc64 (>=POWER4 + Altivec) and any ppc32 (>=PowerPC 603+?) at the moment, but they will drop ppc32 and ppc64 below POWER8 until 2023 unless a maintainer steps up (https://voidlinux-ppc.org/news/2021/11/big-endian.html).
Debian does ppc64 (>=POWER4) as "release architecture" but 32bit ppc lost "release architecture"-status, but still is availiable through ports.
