Flash was a plugin, not a "native API built into browsers".
- Turing_Machine 4y agoA distinction with no difference. Flash used to run on every standard browser. Now it doesn't exist.
- jefftk 4y agoIt's an important difference if you're trying to predict how browsers will behave in the future. They're generally very conservative about removing platform features that people depend on, but this doesn't cover plugins.
