Description
Hi,
in February 2025 I was able to develop on my Raspberry Pi 2 Mod. B using VS Code.
Today I try again to connect with the extension Remote - SSH, I cannot connect to the rpi with the VS Code from my laptop and a dialog with the error CodeError(UnsupportedPlatform("LinuxARM32")).
Is ARMv7l still supported?
Command outputs
> uname -a Linux edge-device-1 6.1.69-v7+ #1711 SMP Thu Dec 21 14:20:16 GMT 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux
> lsb_release -a
Distributor ID: Raspbian
Description: Raspbian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Release: 11
Codename: bullseye

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Remote - SSH connection on the reported Raspberry Pi 2 Mod. B running Raspbian 11 and Linux ARMv7l. Investigate the CodeError(UnsupportedPlatform("LinuxARM32")) result and determine whether ARMv7l support has changed; done means documenting the supported status or identifying a confirmed compatibility fix.
