Remember: not so long ago, to be able to watch videos or play games on Safari, Chrome or Firefox, you had to install the extensionAdobe Flash Playerallowing you to decode a lot of content. Until the start of the last decade, competitors were still in their infancy in terms of market share, and Shantanu Narayen's company reigned supreme in its sector.
Since then, the Tech landscape has evolved and the new programming languageHTML5has established itself as THE reference in this area. It is indeed capable of supporting more files, and above all allows everyone to benefit from the same universal solution rather than depending on a service published by a private company (Hello Lightning cables).
Soon in all Macs
Since 2010,Appleno longer installs Flash by default on all its computers, and Adobe confirmed three years ago that its tool was doomed to disappear. It is therefore now one more step towards the death of the one we nicknamed AFP that Cupertino signs by choosing to no longer support it on its browser. For the moment, however, this news only concerns beta users whose version 99 has just been released.
It is therefore no longer possible to install Flash Player manually. As for Internet users who are on the general public edition ofSafari,just victim of a security breach, they should also be affected during a next update, the date of which has not yet been communicated. And in any case, December 2020 will sign the definitive ruling on support costs for the creator of Photoshop and Illustrator.
