    1. This Is How Steve Jobs Killed Adobe Flash
      Adobe Flash powered most interactive content on the web throughout the 2000’s, but the introduction of the iPhone — and a directive from Apple CEO Steve Jobs — changed everything. Here’s how it happened.

    Isn't it time for #Chrome / #Chromium based browsers to remove #Flash? Adobe plans to end it in two and a half months.

    You know, with #Flash being removed from browsers late this year or early next year at the latest, I often wonder why it is still there. I know it was bundled in Chromium based browsers, but by now they should have stopped doing that.

    @geniusmusing Last time I checked, #Flash is still embedded in #Chrome, #IE11, #Edge. They will all need updates to completely remove the CPU-spinning security hole.

    Hmm. The current version of #Scratch ( https://scratch.mit.edu/ ) is based on Adobe's #Flash, rather than the original #Squeak #Smalltalk. Flash goes #EOL at the end of this year.

    Hopefully, they've already started on their rewrite.

    This $EMPLOYER mandatory online training course still requires #Flash. You've got to be kidding, right? There's probably about a year until Flash itself goes EOL and no browser will run it at all.

    I can see them waiting until the last minute, then panicking about not having a way to prove we know that we're not supposed to [insert action here].

    @amic The bad thing about #Flash being bundled in #Chrome, #Edge, #MSIE is that users don’t even know they have it until they try #Firefox and wonder why videos & animations on some sites don’t work.

    I would love to see all major browsers completely block all Flash months ahead of their schedules.

    @LWFlouisa any site that's still using #Flash is obsolete. You know #Adobe Flash plugins can use your camera and various other things to spy on you, right, and that spyware is turned on by default?

    man this #flash #decompiler really looks like a half-baked Office knockoff UI from the last decade.

    Apparently, since Adobe is discontinuing Flash support in 2020, there's been a project by a member of #archiveteam to archive as many #flash games as possible. The project's called Flashpoint and there's a good if a little old article about it on Medium here: https://blog.usejournal.com/adobe-flashs-gaming-legacy-thousands-upon-thousands-of-titles-and-my-efforts-to-save-it-58c14811558a

    The Discord the article links to seems like a nice and active place. I hope the project will be successful!

    Remember #Flash won the #web for 15 years while it sucked. Why? Because it let people do stuff they wanted like videos and animations -- easily. And it's not because we couldn't do it any other way, we could. Yet we had to wait almost 2 decades to see it die, at the price of stability, security, etc.
    Feature trumps everything.
