32-bit Flash?

Is there a better short-term option for playing Flash video (or whatever Adobe calls it now) on 32-bit linuxen than just keeping Chrome? Why I ask:

IIUC (and please lemme know if any of the following are incorrect):

1. Chrome has been the best (if not the only) option for playing Flash on Linux for several years now, since Adobe discontinued Linux support.

2. Chrome continues to be a good (or the best?) Flash option for 64-bit hardware, but Google has discontinued support for 32-bit Chrome.

3. Web video providers continue to migrate to HTML5, but there's still a lotta Flash video out there.

So a friend is taking a ~6-month trip and wants a cheap/disposable laptop. I'm gonna give her my old 32-bit ThinkPad to try out: it's quite performant with LMDE (up-to-date on Debian 8) and Xfce but may be too weird for a Windows user. However I know she's gonna wanna play video. The TP plays DVDs well, and its Firefox plays HTML5 video well, and its now-discontinued Chrome plays Flash and HTML5 video well. I'm just wondering if there's another/better option for 32-bit Flash, given that 32-bit Chrome is not gonna update on Linux.
