Flash vs HTML5 Thought

If Flash was so dangerous, why did we move to HTML5 which uses 3rd party javascript libraries, instead of just removing the vulnerable or dangerous functionality? Even today Flash is still more superior than HTML5. There are things that you just can not do in HTML5 nor does it offer the following benefits...

  • Small compact file.
  • Easy to upload and distribute.
  • Create stand-alone projectors for app development.
  • Much easier to create screen-savers in multiple ways, specially resolution wise.
  • Was the biggest development for online games.
  • Creative web design was at its peak. Now everyone just uses Wordpress.

HTML5 is no more secure than Flash and is just flat out boring. Bring back Flash!

Flash was a mess back when it was FutureSplash and it just kept getting worse. Its dead. Not coming back, thank God. Give it up.

Never had any issues in 20+ years. So lets keep relying on 3rd party scripts for HTML5. Yeah, that's real secure. LOL!
