If the proposal remains to be only about dropping i686 kernel (and image)
builds, you should be able to get latest Fedora (userspace without latest
kernel) by installing Fedora 30 and upgrading to whatever version you want
in the future.

It's possible that amount of packages built for i686 will be somehow
limited at some point, but I don't expect that to happen anytime soon.
