    Yeah, this post is celebrating Flash like it enabled creativity when jt was just the popular framework. That era didn’t die because Flash went away. Companies killed that era and propped up parts of its body to trick people.

      While yes it is, but I was responding specifically to the ‘celebrating its downfall’ part, which we should have because flash was insecure as fuck.

      As I noted, there were a ton of fun and interesting items people made for it, and you can even still find them out on the net to relive those days and even see new shit on places like newgrounds. But let’s not pretend that flash itself didn’t need to die well before it did.
