Flash’s Features

This add-on, which allowed users to play multimedia content in browsers like Chrome, Opera, and Firefox, included the following features:

On screens and browsers, play interactive content, animations, and applications such as sports.
Hardware acceleration, vector data utilization, support for advanced text, and dynamic sound generation are all new options for application developers.
By controlling local data, users may have more control of their privacy.

Developers’ disagreements

For years, Adobe’s technology has assisted in the enhancement of the Internet’s multimedia component. Places such as YouTube and other video platforms, as well as online gamers, have taken advantage of this to ensure that their content is available from any browser.

However, various scandals about Flash bugs and how they could be used by hackers to achieve remote access to a device have surfaced in recent years. As a result, businesses like Mozilla and Google dropped support for their browsers (Firefox and Chrome) to join the ranks of others who had already done so.

The introduction of HTML5 seems to have absolutely denounced it, as this web programming language incorporates tags with codecs for playback of multimedia components in the same code, removing the need for browser add-ons.
