Adobe Flash was once a mainstay on the Web, but it's suddenly become far less common. What happened to it?

When you mentioned YouTube requiring Flash Player, I got a rush of nostalgia.

Because Club Penguin isn’t around any more. I guess.

I’m so sad. Future generations will never be able to play the same flash games like we did. I spent hours on super smash flash and I’ll most likely never be able to play it again.

Apple's timing was NOT good, not supporting Flash was ridiculous at the time. In fact, it's what gave Android its initial boost, because it supported Flash and that was a major selling point for Android in the early days. Nearly every site with interactive features used Flash until 2011-12, it didn't really die in the vast majority of sites until 2014-15 or so. HTML5 wasn't even finalized until 2014. So for a good 3-4 years browsing on an iPhone was severely limited. It didn't run well on Android, but it ran.

We all know Apple doesn't like proprietary systems... that they don't own.

40% of the comments: lamenting the death of Flash and the loss of early 2000s nostalgia fuel
60% of the comments: praising or decrying the video's pronunciation of GIF

I had an old computer which lagged so hard when html5 came out to youtube - there was a way to chose Flash or HTML5 and the videos on Flash were plaing flawlessly
