If Debian people lose interest then anyone who wants debian on such platforms

Donating relevant hardware to Debian developers (you want to have your own

That doesn't address the "lost interest" problem.
Giving some cash as "encouragement" for developers who work on the platform.
Doing the work themselves (and joining Debian if they aren't already a
developer).
Paying someone to do the work.
You could do any of those with an old redhat release. Again, this is not
a distinct advantage/reason for people to run debian.
