I fully agree with you. But like I said, if technology is replaced, it should be replaced by better technology.
For websites, HTML5 offers enough to be considered a proper alternative. Yes, I probably dislike Flash websites as much as you do.
But for games, HTML5 just doesn't cut it compared to Flash (or yes, even Java applets as someone else mentioned ;)). And the sad truth is that by design, each browser vendor will have it's own implementation with it's own quirks.
(I seem to be getting a lot of down-votes on my original post, although I don't think I said anything incorrect)

- sdenton4 11y agoI think the issue is with the 'better technology' bit. Flash simply isn't a better technology than HTML5. They are, as they say, a land of contrasts, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. But where HTML5 is moving forward, steadily improving, Flash is actually getting much worse with time, supporting an ever-smaller proportion of the net, and doing so with less stability and security.
