> breaking internet standards by deprecating flash
Flash was never an "internet standard"; it was a proprietary product of Adobe.
OK, it depends on what you mean by "internet standard"; in general, I take "X standard" to mean a specification for X issued by some standards body, such that a third-party can implement X by following the spec.
- Ygg2 3y agoIt was a defacto standard. Everyone had Flash. Granted, there were reason to abandon it. But I can understand people being upset with it gone.
- wolletd 3y agoDidn't really take long for replacements like https://ruffle.rs/ https://ruffle.rs/ to emerge, though.
- justinclift 3y ago> Didn't really take long ... You're meaning that sarcastically, yeah?
