The problem with flash is that it was a security, performance and usability nightmare for web browsers.

Yes the games and videos were cool, but 99% of the usage of Flash was awful ads and UI/UX elements.

I just used an click to load flash extension in firefox back then and everything was fine.

		True. That’s basically how h.264 and DRM is being done in the browser for stuff like Netflix, today, right?

For most of Flash's existence on the web, I had my computers configured to block flash. (The block was achieved by removing files IIRC).
