Java Versions
BiglyBT's minimum and recommended Java version is 1.8.

Oracle has stopped shipping a 32-bit version of Java, the last one was 1.8.
Other vendors still offer 32-bit versions, for example AdoptOpenJDK.
BiglyBT uses the SWT graphics library from Eclipse.
The last 32-bit release of SWT was in 2018, version 4.9 (4919). Therefore, if you decide to run a 32-bit version of BiglyBT you will be limited to a rather out-of-date graphics library that will, over time, have more and more issues. It is also an issue for the BiglyBT developers to continually have to ensure compatability so, sometime not so far far away, BiglyBT support for 32-bit will end.
