It's about fucking time. Now the world will not have to suffer the pain that is adobe flash.
Did you even read the fucking article?
They're cutting off distribution links so you have to download through their shit installer and the shitty adware it entails.
Not that it matters if you have a package manager, anyway.
Why won't Flash die already.

I don't because I'm not a Linux autist. I care about productivity and performance, so I use a professional OS.

Here, cockrider:
> Adobe is finally ready to say goodbye to Flash. In an announcement last night, Adobe said that it will now "encourage content creators to build with new web standards," such as HTML5, rather than Flash.

literally in the article you linked
>Adobe is by no means doing away with Flash
i like how people only read headlines.
>>51650038
Are you living in 2003 or just mentally challenged? The entire world knows that Flash is dead, and Adobe has recognized it now.
AND NOTHING OF VALUE WAS LOST

It has died. I haven't installed that cancer for 4 years. Unless you watch videos on Facebook, you'll never need it.
>>51650085
95% of streaming video sites still use Flash (or fucking Silverlight). I have to open Chrome to watch my old episodes of Deep Space Nine.

If only the same was done to internet explorer.

Who wouldn't want to do that?
But you can't because IE 8 and 9 are STILL not outlawed.
>>51650085
Niconico streams still need flash. They don't work with ytdl or livestreamer. Also flash porn.
>>51650184
Microsoft support for them will end next month, and upgrading to Windows 10 is free. If your manager won't move away from IE8 or IE9, rape his anus.
>>51650255
>Niconico
Mostly shitty content. The good videos are always re-uploaded to Youtube.
> porn
Grow up and get a real girlfriend, idiot.
>>51650705
It's more like my manager still thinks that IE 8 and 9 users should be able to access the web applications we make.
Web applications on IE 8 and 9 are just... hardly possible.They simply lack the features that are necessary, for crying out loud.

But what about /f/?
>>51650790
Just because some program is "dead" doesn't mean you can't use it.
>>51649761
they changed the name of the content creation tool and nothing else. you're a retard.
so is there a file format for HTML5/Javascript animations yet?
is there a version of SWF?
i guess its redundant and youd just use a .html even if you only wanted to send a movie or whatever
>>51651043
Nah. CSS animations are transitions are as useless as ever.
The web animations API might change things eventually.
finally
