I was looking for those on the FTP site which is where I find the 32-bit Raspberry Pi image.
I second the recommendation for the Raspberry Pi 4. Booting is the simplest thing ever: download Tianocore EDK2 for Raspberry Pi 4 and unzip the file into the EFI partition, add the EFI bootloader from NetBSD and you're all set.
I am running an RPi4 from a spinning-rust hard drive connected over USB. No SD card needed at all. Rock-solid, except some weeks ago when I had a drive failure :) I found that a HDD is actually not bad for running compiles. At least, its performance is more predictable than that of an SD card.
