[_] Update on Flash discontinuation Anonymous 12/08/20(Tue)19:29:22 No.3448759
“Today is the final release of Flash Player for all regions outside mainland China. We’d like to
take this opportunity to thank all of our customers and developers who have used and created
Flash Player content over the past two decades. We’re proud We hope that Flash has played a
critical role in the creation of animation, interactivity, audio and video web content and we
look forward to helping shape the next era of digital experiences.
Adobe will stop supporting Flash Player after December 31, 2020, and Adobe will block Flash
content from running in Flash Player starting January 12, 2021; Adobe strongly recommends that
all users uninstall Flash Player immediately to protect their systems.
Some users may still see reminders from Adobe to uninstall Flash Player from their system. For
more details and links to instructions for users who wish to manually uninstall Flash Player,
please visit our General Information About Flash Player EOL page . “

It's strange to decide to release the final version now when there's three weeks left of the
year. Since the holidays always turn out to be an issue they should have set the end date on
January 31st instead.
Adobe has said they will not fix the [ ] bug:

Well shit. I hope blocking the update task will stop this from happening.

it does not, the plugin has a kill switch that checks the computer's clock

Does this mean this board will die on January 12th?

Has someone found the version of flash without the kill switch?
>> [_] Anonymous 12/09/20(Wed)12:19:30 No.3448866
why are they so intent on killing flash?
why cant they just let us keep it and deal with the consequences ourselves? i'm not a retard

Probably for PR reasons. Google and Microsoft are happy to see their competitor's product be
retired and have spent years smearing Flash's reputation as inherently unsafe. It would make
Adobe look suspect if they ended Flash support without also "protecting" users from it.

Nah, the files will still be here, and you can still upload to here, you just can't view them on
the board itself, you'd have to have some kind of flash watching app like the one Newgrounds made
a few months back. Or the one from Flash Macromedia.

Why are flash files so loud that I have to lower my volume to like 1 or 2 to have them at level
that won't blow my ear drums out?
I had this problem forever but it took me until the death of flash to ask this funnily enough.

Just use an external player, it's how I've played flash files for a while since iirc operagx or
whatever else I used a while ago would just try to download the flash if I opened it without
embedding. It just means I'll need to make a folder for stuff I haven't looked at yet to know if
I wanna save it

There's wrappers that can accomplish this too.
e.g. on linux I can
$ faketime '2001-09-11 08:46' flashplayer
I assume similar exist on windows, not that I ever checked.

I might add that this whole "kill switch" thing made me try the opposite before.
Setting this in the future, doesn't break flashplayer (at least not on linux). No idea for
browser plugins, haven't used in ages.

what will replace flash animations and games?
browser based java games? L0L
