True.

Using https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1&type=package and
searching for mips reports that the most recent build was:

quarterly for 130releng-mips64 Sat, 23 Jul 2022 01:41:13 GMT. (But
nothing built.)

The most recent that actually built something:
main-mips64 Thu, 27 Jan 2022 02:30:02 GMT

As far as 32-bit mips goes, the most recent is:
quarterly 121mips Thu, 31 Dec 2020 01:03:30 GMT
It did build something.

So, none of the FreeBSD:*:mips* variants are likely needed for
FreshPorts any more.



As a separate note: https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/?all=1&type=package
does not cover any modern powerpc, powerpc64, or powerpc64le build.
They are using some other process that is not exposed (as far as I know).
So, for the various powerpc* I can only look in the various examples
of the patterns:

https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:*:powerpc*/quarterly/ <https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD::powerpc*/quarterly/>
https://pkg.freebsd.org/FreeBSD:*:powerpc*/latest/

linked to at https://pkg.freebsd.org/ and see what dates (if any) show
up. That is how I found the fairly recent dates that I reported.
