I'm fine with x64 but don't drop Slimjet, Ok?
You can observe woolyss's activities about Chromium 32 & 64 supports.

I've notice that you've drop Slimboat because of youtube html5 incompatibilities.
& IE is gonna die later so Slimbrowser is the next Domino.
You've made to the right choice to shift to Slimjet I've proud of your turbo charge download manager.

Also some Linux users start to be happy about flash 21+ version supports on Slimjet Linux.
Chromium doesn't have flash so Linux users have to struggle install flashplugin-nonfree which only get 11.2 version. :lol:

ReactOS also end up the same fate as XP.

There is actually one catch about 32-bit linux. We wouldn't be able to continue provide flash updates to the 32-bit version of Slimjet for linux. Originally, we just grabbed it from the Chrome package. After Chrome dropped 32-bit linux support, we will have no source of flash updates for linux. Sorry, guys.

No problem, just don't drop Linux 64 bits support your "Turbocharged Download Manager" is top notch. :mrgreen:
Also Slimjet is more updated than Maxthon.

Right now on Linux there're:
Chrome, Chromium, Slimjet, Maxthon, Midori, Firefox, Cyberfox[new!], Tor Browser
Opera, Vivaldi. So you're not alone many web browser start to become cross platform like you did.
This year cross-platform software on freeware & open source world are booming like fungus. :mrgreen:

Only "Waterfox" alone that is "Windows Only" open source browser left. :lol:
