LinkedIn also abandoned their HTML 5 mobile app experiences.
the biggest problem with HTML 5 video is that it does not support adaptive bitrate streaming. notice that the desktop experience of YouTube still uses a flash player instead of an HTML 5 video player. notice that apple used QuickTime as their default player on their site.
in short, HTML 5 video player is an absolute last resort player.

- TheLegace 13y agoDon't get me started on how terrible all of it is on Linux. Incapable of dual screen full screen in flash, HTML5 has to buffer every time you enter full screen mode. Incredible slow performance, buggy, crashes. I actually have to boot into Windows VM just to watch flash/youtube.
