The majority, if not all, 32-bit Apps that are compatible with the older 32-bit models of iPad have been withdrawn from the App Store. Once removed from the App,Store, you’ll not be able to reinstall these Apps on your iPad1. As such, you may have no alternative other than to consider replacement of your original first generation iPad with a much newer model.
The current entry-level iPad, the iPad9, is considerably more powerful than your iPad1. Being a 64-bit device, capable of running running iPadOS 15.x, you’ll be able to install the vast majority of currently available Apps.
