Crimes against Web Standards confessional is open, and I go first! I wrote two books on Adobe Livemotion. I am ambivalent about Flash tech personally, glad for those it gave joy, angry at all plug-ins, sad that #a11y and security are so compromised on the Web.

We all know the reasons Flash had to go, but I’m not up for all the dancing on its grave people do. The web felt a lot more creative back then.

Yeah, it’s not Flash I miss as much as the kind of creativity we had then.

I absolutely agree. Not just Flash. We were in a Brave New World and having fun exploring. The thrill is gone (for me).
