You're assuming everyone posting replies and that the author of the post are all HTML5 fanatics. Have you considered that many of us might have worked heavily in Flash/Flex for years designing website and applications, and that possibly the uprising against Flash mentioned here involves Linux Flash plugins seg faulting with no error messages, crazy Flex binding memory usage, general CPU overload and a horrible debug log policy due to sandboxing? I'd be interested to hear why you think Flash is good. Incidentally, who's using Windows? :)
- radley 17y agoSounds funny, but my only supporting fact is I wouldn't be here without Flash. I basically loath programming but I'm willing to do it because of Flash. Sure there's CPU problems and there will always be more-optimized forms of code. But Flash has a timeline, which is something few here will understand or appreciate. Plus it really is ubiquitous, unlike anything else. I'll take a small performance hit if it means I don't have to learn/write/test multiple languages and systems. I'm not in this for the code. I'm in it for the UX.
