Oh, Youtube changed to HTML5 4 years ago :-)
Surprising as I didn't think all browsers took up HTML5 for quite a while.
So how come a big company like Adobe made such a piece of crap, and didn't
fix it?
They didn't make it, they bought it. I guess in the end it was too hard to
maintain and required a specific install for every os. Just like java which
is all also dying. HTML 5 is os agnostic by default. IOS not supporting it
was the killer blow.

actually, ios not supporting it greatly injured it, but it limped along
for a few years as adobe desperately tried to get it to run on android.
the killer blow was when android stopped supporting it.
