I'm not sure late zoomers will understand that Flash was like the Windows of the internet. Everything used it. Youtube used it. Your fucking bank used it. The current state of Flash is like if we just stopped using video cards, and old games no longer worked so good if they relied on that clunky old RTX 4080.
