    Tech Flash will be discontinued -- Adobe

    Adobe Plans to Stop Distributing Flash Service at End of 2020
    https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...at-end-of-2020

    Adobe Systems Inc.?s Flash service -- which had long faced criticism for its cumbersome user experience and vulnerability to hacking -- is finally set to fade into history.

    At the end of 2020, the company will stop updating and distributing the online tool, a separate plug-in that improves graphically intensive activities for web surfers like video and playing games, Adobe said in a blog post Tuesday. Adobe, which made the change in collaboration with Apple Inc., Alphabet Inc.?s Google, Facebook Inc. and other tech companies, is encouraging developers that use the Flash program to seek other options....

    "cumbersome user experience and vulnerability to hacking"

    Sure, because internet explorer, php sql and Wordpress never had a problem.

    Good luck.

        Wordpress , php and sql are not user services, they are server services. And internet explorer did not had monopoly as flash had it.

          Not exactly true : There is Flash Media Server.

          Flash Media Server used to be the only cross platform way you could stream video.
          That's why youtube used it.
          Then lighttpd became the rage.
          Then encoding mp4 video with the "moov atom" at the front took over with h.264.


          If there were anything really great available other than flash then webcam sites would have
          switched a long time ago.

          HTML5 is difficult when it comes to complex uses.

          Good luck.

            You need to disable the Flash plugin on your PC and go to some of the popular cams sites -- many are already using HLS with sound -- a Flash plugin not found rolls over to HLS. Chaturbate, Streamate, Jasmin and XloveCam (others) are doing this now -- welcome to today ;=)

            Android, Mac, iOs ...

            Flash media server will be discontinued for the broadcasters also in time.
            FMS is being used for transcoding HSL now.
            I expect that to change in the next 6-12 months too.

                OK, if HLS works so good then why do they put flash first and wait for it to fail.

                Good luck.
