Are still there any user friendly 32bit Linux distros? ZorinOS will drop out the 32bit support and my grandfather is still using a 32bit Laptop lol

YES at the moment you will get support till at least 2024 with most Debian based 32 bit distributions, so
MX-32bit
debian stable-32bit
Mint lmde5-32bit
AntiX-32bit
to name a few

Thank you
I'll go for MINT
Add Refracta to that and Devuan Linux

Sometimes slower than 64bit, and sometimes not. It depends on a few factors, hardware being one of them, but the real problem with 32bit is that Unix and its clone systems will run out of space for "Unix time" which the kernel depends on, that is, the numerical measure of time in seconds since 1970 used in the kernel will exceed the 32bit allocation and lead to malfunction beyond 2038. The 64bit systems will last much longer, a few billion years more.
