And in a Flash, it was gone

July 25, 2017 by Alan Stainer

And in a Flash, it was gone

Originally shared by David King

Flash will no longer be supported by the internet by 2020

Adobe announced this morning that they will stop supporting Flash by 2020. Google, Apple, Windows, Mozilla, Facebook and a number of other major companies will be following the same timeline.

For 20 years, Flash has helped shape the way that you play games, watch videos and run applications on the web. But over the last few years, Flash has become less common. Three years ago, 80 percent of desktop Chrome users visited a site with Flash each day. Today usage is only 17 percent and continues to decline.

So long Flash!
