I’d rather not use any plugins, but not all plugins are created equal. Flash Player is a turd, from security to performance and power conservation. We deserve better.
Even if Unity’s WebPlayer were every bit as miserable as Flash, it would still make web browsing better than having Flash installed, as few websites will call the Unity WebPlayer.
- camus 14y agoHello , there is something called flashblock and click to play. And nothing guarantees that the Unity web player is not a turd , from security to performance and power conservation. Obviously you never used their player ...
- _delirium 14y agoI wonder if detecting the Unity WebPlayer and using it to serve rich-media ads when present is that far off...
- __--__ 14y agoIt'll never happen. Flash is a lightweight rich media format designed for rich media. Unity is a full blown 3d environment and is not lightweight and not 2d friendly. That said, the only thing unity is really useful for is 3d applications, which are very limited. It's not going to replace Flash for 2d games.
- __--__ 14y agoThe webplayer is more miserable than flash's, by virtue that it's less mature. It crashes a lot, especially on macs.
