This letter from Steve Jobs (removed from Apple website) was a death sentence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoughts_on_Flash.
Steve Jobs just hated Adobe guys that made success in creative industry Jobs wanted to own. You can read how he praised proprietrary H264 format over “proprietrary” flash - flashplayer VM was opensourced in 2006 as part of Tamarin project and shaped web browsers of today. Letter was published in 2010.
Steve Jobs fucked couple generations of people by blaming flashplayer as a source of intrusive ads and all bad that’s inside web and now we have that bad shit embedded in the browsers instead of external plugin. I’d say Steve Jobs fucked internet.
Thats some big lore claims for the death of flash games, got the sauce on where you found that info?

Cool thanks for sharing. Flash games were a big part of my childhood. As if I didn’t have enough reason to dislike Apple and ol’ Jobby.
Steve Jobs was right about Adobe though. They gobbled up nearly every single creative tool in the market. Now everyone hates them!
