Why has Flash support been retired from nearly all the websites?

Answer 1

Favorite Answer

It was too vulnerable to hacks. 

It requires permission to run and install whenever you visit a new site so most users don’t like having to grant permission every time. Our workplace used flash and I have to grant permission just to fill out my time sheet. 

It’s not supported by mobile devices (at least for iPhones anyway), so I have to use a desktop or laptop to fill in my hours. 

Answer 2

Adobe Flash Player had serious security problems and has been discontinued on ALL websites.  Browsers no longer support Flash Player.   Web based Videos have to use HTML-5.

Answer 3

Its a pain in the *** bit of software, and there are viable alternatives, so adobe is discontinuing the software at the end of the year
