I switched to HTML5 video for youtube because I don't have flash on this machine. Initially I couldn't watch about 30% of videos because "flash player is required". Now it's closer to 90% - either because "flash player is required" or "this video is unavailable" - and yet the youtube-dl script still works. Stop lying to me, Google!
- tl 13y agoAs an additional insult, when an item in my RSS feed is a YouTube video, I can play it in Feedly in a (flashless) Safari. However, if I go to the youtube page (the embedded version in Feedly lacks fullscreen, for example), "flash player is required." Who is youtube's most viable competitor? Vimeo? Is there anything consumers can do to encourage content to be posted there instead?
