Flash is dying

Flash is being phased out and Newgrounds is actually looking into making a new kind of plugin to retain Flash functionality in modern browsers (without the hilariously retarded security vulnerabilities)

Why not just use HTML5 and JS?

what exactly happens when Flash gets deprecated? because people are acting as if the data will evaporate on december 2020, but what's stopping me from forcing a flash install and playing those games?

Who cares? They're all shovelware meme shit. Good riddance.

why don't they just make it /html5/ ?

Around 2010 when I stopped going to /f/ regularly.

Because you can't just convert old pre-compiled ActionScript into Chrome-compatible JS with the snap of a finger or a simple program. That's what the Newgrounds plugin is for, to introduce a compatibility layer with sandboxing so modern browsers can run Flash code without having to deal with the bug-ridden official Flash plugin.

Can anyone identify what caused those huge spikes between 2015 and 2016?

I kinda wish there was an option to browse and choice what flashes to download instead of download the entire 150 GB's. I still have this bookmarked when it started a year back but maybe when I get a new hard drive I'll dedicate some space for it

My collection feels much too light for my heavy heart.

There's two big problems with flash being deprecated: Browsers stop supporting it, and sites stop hosting content made with it. These things are already issues as it is now, you have to pull teeth just to get some browsers to enable flash, and sites like Nickelodeon and Yahoo Japanese (Winnie The Pooh's Home Run Derby) are already taking down their flash content, most or all of it is just straight up gone on some sites. And if those sites take those games down, and no one has copies saved or hosted anywhere, then those games are gone forever. Newgrounds is an exception because the entire site and its culture revolve around Flash media, so they've opted to try and build their own software to support Flash, but other sites aren't as passionate.

That's what the Infinity download is for, you install just the shell of Flashpoint and download games as you want to play them.

They have a new client called "Infinity" with a browser that lets you pick games piecemeal instead of downloading the whole archive. It's a 200MB base install that grows as you download games to play.

isn't it being killed off? Chromes like killing it at the end of the year and Brave has already made it not supported.

Holy fucking shit dude. I actually had to think for a moment if that was real.

in all seriousness, we should really have a board for archiving mega links. /rs/ served a useful purpose.

I miss the hidden boards. I loved being an ass and sending people to /z/ or /fk/

Just found Heiwachan's shit last week, there's still fresh content out there

Mudah.swf is probably how a lot of people became aware of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. Me, I first heard about it from an old PlayStation magazine talking about the fighting game on the PS1 but I never played it and I honestly didn't watch the show until it aired on Toonami a few years ago. Fun times participating in the general on Yea Forums.
