Pretty much all 22 comments on the article so far are talking about how Flash is a security hole and they just want it to die. No one there is rejoicing at all. I guess my comment above is the odd one out. Even though I rarely use it, I'm glad the option to use 23 in Linux actually exists now. Not sure why they stopped updating in Linux specifically before, not enough staff maybe?

For me this is good news, as I still use Flash. I accept that I seem to be in the minority nowadays but not all the sites I use run on HTML5.

Adobe plans to keep these new builds up to date and in sync with major releases on Windows and Mac, it doesn’t plan to support or add any advanced features and capabilities, like DRM, GPU acceleration, Stage 3D, etc. to the NPAPI version on Linux.
Those of you seeking that level of functionality are advised, say Adobe, to use the PPAPI version of Flash Player.

Firefox, my first choice browser for its zoom page plugin, together with its HTML5 support serves nearly all my needs, except the BBC who have been very slow to migrate to HTML5. For that I use Chromium + pepperflash. I used to use adobe reader a lot for PDF's, but now favour masterpdfeditor3 which supports editing (highlighting, drawing ...etc) as well. Adobe have somewhat shot themselves in the foot and lost a large captive market, it will be a long struggle to regain (if ever) their former glory levels IMO.Colonel Panic wrote:For me this is good news, as I still use Flash.
