This is so important but no discussion on Forum: shows how dead the Forum is.
Will it still work in Download?
It seems Adobe, publishers of Flash, said that it would end as early as 2012, if not earlier: for clarification 2012 was when they announced it would end not the date of its ending.
MnF did not start until late 2015 I believe so why did they use this format when HTML5 was replacing it?
That support for Flash is ending is not that important. Support for my version of Excel has ended but it still works.
What is happening with Flash is that the Browsers are going to kill or block it so you cannot use it.
With Chrome it was disabled some months ago and I had to enable it manually; I have to do this each time I play.
The one big reason that browsers will be "killing it" or "blocking it" is because if it isn't being updated anymore, it could become a security risk. It also could just eventually become incompatible with browsers after enough updating, which makes it more worthwhile to cut it off before it can cause problems.
Programs that aren't being developed for or supported anymore also have no more room for growth. Flash could do a lot, but it has problems that will now never be fixed, as well as things that it just can't do (or can't do well) compared to other comparable software that is still being developed and/or supported. It really is in the best interest of anyone who has been working in Flash to switch to something else, whether that be another Adobe program, Unity, or whatever else. As time goes on, Flash will not even be on or regularly accessible to any new machines because it is effectively dead, which would make users have to jump through hoops just to use anything that still insists on using Flash on desktop.
The support for Flash ending does matter, even if it weren't immediately apparent.
