Flash is now disabled by default in real Firefox too, not just our favorite browser TenFourFox. Adobe crapware loses again.

I haven't had a computer with Flash on it in about 5 years and have never missed it.

Great! I hate flash, on my PC's and Macs at least, it is slow, and unstable, and insecure.
Just one more step in ridding humanity of the monstrocity that is flash.

I can't believe I was using the internet just before Flash was just starting to go mainstream and now I'm witnessing its demise!

I used to make multimedia presentations with Flash when it was a new (and exciting) thing...before it became the Bogeyman of the online world

I would have to disagree with this. Flash did a lot of things that simply weren't possible with conventional CSS/JavaScript.

Now that Flash has become so bloated and HTML5 can do most of what it can, things have changed.
