This was a terrible era. Specifically because of sites that had no business using it making their whole site flash. Like restaurants.

- AndrewSwift 5y agoThere were definitely a lot of bad Flash sites, but there were some amazingly creative, artistic sites too. I could list a bunch of links, but of course none of them work anymore. Perhaps I could require some sort of SVG Licence to use Svija, or an oath to usability ;-)
- spicybright 5y agoIt's not like they were completely unusable, it's just showing text in an annoying way. On the plus side, it's a testament to how nearly anyone could build a website. I'm sure many many people got their feet wet in web dev making simple sites for local businesses because the bar was so low.
- ehutch79 5y agoExcept when they were completely unusable. Making an html version of most of the stuff i'm talking about would have been much easier than the flash version. when the only interactivity is changing pages.
