sorry for being out of the loop, havent been around recently. whats going to happen to this board
at the end of the year? all the major browsers are removing flash completely, does that mean we
all just install a branched/custom browser and go on as business as usual, or are there major
changes planned to the board itself?

as if hirsohimoot is gonna tell us
just keep an outdated browser around that you'll only use for /f/ or the flash projector and
we'll see

Fun tidbit: even Newgrounds switched to video.
Tom Fulp in 2017:
> 1. Adobe will still support Adobe Animate, their re-branded version of Flash. You can still use
it to make animation but you will share it in video format vs SWF. Most animators are already
doing this. Just about every animation you watch on NG is now an MP4 loading in an HTML5 video
player.
> 2. No, people don’t need animation software that exports animation in HTML5 format. We just
need animation to be in video format. We created Swivel for this many years ago and it’s super
popular.
> 3. Newgrounds supports games in HTML5 format, which is becoming increasingly dominant. There is
a big question of whether we will be able to preserve the 80,000+ games that were made in Flash.
At the least, you could download and play them in an external player but we are hoping to have a
solid web-based option by the time 2020 rolls along. Options include javascript that can
interpret and run an SWF file, software that can convert existing swf files to javascript or
something using WebAssembly, which is still maturing. A lot has been happening in this space but
nothing is perfect at the moment.

Newgrounds is still relevant at all?

LOL, they had video support since 2012. This is nothing new famalam, even in 2017.
They have their own dedicated player for Flash now, and it's pretty alright, since you don't have
to manually download swfs to play them, so Flash might as well be indefinitely supported there.
I am afraid of the future for this board though, since Hiromoot has to be modern internet about
what he's doing and not tell anyone shit.
The fuck happened to the days of transparency and constant site-news updates?
