Why does Google require Adobe Flash for StreetView and Google Finance charts?
I am attempting to live a pure life by not installing Flash into anything but a virtual machine. Am I really going to have to use Bing and YahooFinance forever or is Google going to step up?
Also please automatically redirect Youtube videos to html5 version when Flash is not installed or at least give a link. I am tired of manually typing /embed/ into the url.
- nextparadigms 15y agoGoogle showed a WebGL version of Google Maps and Street View recently. Finance will probably be switched to HTML5 eventually, too. I'd rather they make WebM default already and leave Flash for fall-back.
- frou_dh 15y agoThe answer to your question is that presumably they're not as bothered by Flash as you are, so don't feel the need to rush a transition.
