Personally, I think it was actually a bad move to add 64-bit support since that's just going to slow down their progress. Back when ReactOS was first being made, it didn't really make sense to use since Windows XP was ubiquitous, and effortless to pirate for anyone who didn't want to pay. However, XP has been long since abandoned, to the point that a lot of modern software can't be installed on it and a lot of modern hardware won't work properly either. ReactOS could be a great option to bridge the gap between 2000s-era hardware and software with what's available today, much in the same way of DOS Box. I think it has a lot of potential to be of immense interest [among hobbyists], all they have to do is get native XP drivers to work.
