They are less likely to undergo the scrutiny of security experts that have identified a constant stream of vulnerabilities in the Adobe Flash player. I would be worried about the integrity of any home grown Flash players.

Since Flash is still a big potential security hole, unless you intend to update it on a regular basis, it would be best to completely disable it. Some websites are creating there own Flash players to enable the use of Flash when support ends.įlash still has a lot of use. In 2021 Firefox will “refuse to load the plugin”. Flash will continue to be supported in the Firefox Extended Support Release (ESR) version until the end of 2020. The second final step for Flash on Firefox is due in 2020 and will see Flash support completely removed from consumer versions of Firefox. Mozilla explains that once Flash has been disabled by default in Firefox, users will not be prompted to enable Flash, but they will be able to activate Flash on certain sites using browser settings. You can store your preferences on a site to site basis. It only activates and uses it when you want to run a website that has flash content. The flash plugin is also run in disabled mode by Firefox. 🙂įirefox blocks flash content by default even when the flash plugin is installed. I had assumed from the OP’s post that the question related to website animations and video clips.

You raised a good point about offline content.
I may have read more into your question than you meant, and I’m not entirely sure this would work in all cases.

This is the same kind of workaround many use to read PDF pages in a browser, rather than use a standalone reader application. Consider the browser of your choice as a little container, a mini operating system, and see if you can ‘open with’ your browser to launch the doohickey. Maybe you created it yourself as a project while learning about Flash, or received a useful gadget from a trusted source long ago. What may not be obvious is that if you have content locally on your own system then you may be worried you cannot run it. And others have observed that the burden to adapt to new standards belongs to the sites that offer that content. All the answers you’ve read address that by suggesting Chrome or another browser equipped with the appropriate extension. Hi Slowpoke, I’ll try not to assume your experience level and explain that most users encounter Flash while browsing the World Wide Web. On July 25, 2017, Adobe announced that both the distribution and support of Flash will cease by the end of 2020. In early November 2011, Adobe announced that it would discontinue development of Flash for mobile devices and reorient its efforts in developing tools using HTML5. This sparked a debate in web development circles suggesting that, while HTML5 provides enhanced functionality, developers must consider the varying browser support of the different parts of the standard as well as other functionality differences between HTML5 and Flash. HTML5’s interactive capabilities became a topic of mainstream media attention around April 2010 after Apple Inc.’s then-CEO Steve Jobs issued a public letter titled “Thoughts on Flash” in which he concluded that “Flash is no longer necessary to watch video or consume any kind of web content” and that “new open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win”. There are many Flash capabilities that have no direct counterpart in HTML5 (see Comparison of HTML5 and Flash). However, HTML5 on its own cannot be used for animation or interactivity – it must be supplemented with CSS3 or JavaScript. Both include features for playing audio and video within web pages, and for using Scalable Vector Graphics.
While some features of HTML5 are often compared to Adobe Flash, the two technologies are very different. So I don’t have to remember to keep any standalone Flash plugins up to date with the latest security patches. The advantage to that security-wise for me is that Chrome updates include the latest secure version of the Flash plugin. If I run across a site that needs Flash to display properly, I then open it up in Chrome (not my default browser).

I do not install or enable the Flash plugin in any of my browsers, with the exception that Google Chrome comes with a Flash plugin pre-installed. I find those sites that are lagging behind to be annoying, because you still need the Flash plugin to play the Flash content. Some websites still host Flash content, but eventually they will drop it in favor of the new open standard.

Flash is being replaced by the open format HTML5 video element, with full support by all major browsers, so no plugin is required for HTML5 content playback:
