> Especially on Youtube which still uses Flash by default No since January[1]. Maybe you have an old cookie set or something? [1] http://youtube-eng.blogspot

  From the link: "and in beta versions of Firefox" Maybe he's still using a Firefox stable version a few months old?

  If you disable Flash completely then Youtube works fine with HTML5 video. However, when Flash is set as click to play then Youtube still prompts to enable Flash. Annoying.

    You're right. :)

      You can use this page to see if your browser will use HTML5 by default, and set a cookie to try HTML5 instead of Flash if it's not the default. https://www.youtube.com/html5 https://www.youtube.com/html5

    I'm late to respond to this, but this is really not true (speaking as a several-year (and current) user of click to play Flash). I would suggest checking the https://www.youtube.com/html5 https://www.youtube.com/html5 page sp332 suggested to see if you have checks in all those boxes and making sure you're using a recent version of whatever browser you're running[1]. Only if your browser doesn't support the needed html5 video features does it switch back to flash.
