Good. ActiveX and Java Applets are terrible.
- rightbyte 8y agoJava Applets were awesome. ActiveX is handy for enterprise glue. Flash is nice too. There was a huge gap before JS frameworks cought up to Java Applets and Flash after they in practice were dropped.
- dcbadacd 8y agoThis huge gap has been pretty much bridged, removing the huge security concerns as well. It's time for those things to die. Whipping up an old browser should be the only way to use those things so that noone is even tempted to write things like that.
