Just updated Firefox to version 58.0.1 and now when I open a flash it just says "Run Adobe Flash"
instead of the previous message that suggested that flash might be dangerous.
This is a good thing! I didn't expect this from today's browsers that are hell-bent on tearing
down flash for no reason other than because they have decided to do it. Could it be that they are
listening to the pleads of people that love flash??
Unfortunately I can't remember exactly what the old message said, if you haven't upgraded Firefox
yet please post the old message here.

Hm, was this it? Or is this what it said when you were using an old version of flash?

This is the one! It's not as bad as >>3311938 but a simple "Run Adobe Flash" is a million times
better.

cool
but it's only changing phrases for the same block function
nothing changed and will change and people will try to demonize flash until it's demise
personally I was most upset about "This site uses a plugin that may slow Firefox."
I picture dumb people opening a cancerous ad site and then going DERP Y DA COMPUTAH SO SLOOW
fuck, when I open a single swf file fullscreen I know damn well how fast my pc will be (as fast
as before actually)
that's the biggest concern people have? that it MIGHT slow down their toaster pc browser by
opening 100 tabs with cpu intense swf files?
not the security vulnerability or unability to know which swf files a random site runs
automatically...
FLASH MAKE DA COMPUTAH GO SLOWER, OH NOEZ
fuck humanity

That's why I'm happy it only says "Run Adobe Flash" now. I don't really have a problem with flash
no longer auto-loading in browsers, as long as it is possible to activate it with a simple click
or two.
Removing any kind of scary, and frankly, bullshit message like it will "slow down your browser"
is good. A video will also slow down your browser. As will many images. Or a HTML5 game. Or
JavaScript. All of those will still auto-load just fine in Firefox without any scary messages.
I'm still hopeful flash plugin will remain even after 2020. Not optimistic, just hoping for it.
