About Flash on small devices
Adobe is obviously annoyed at the “no flash here” broken plugin icons on the iPad. And people are pointing out Flash is a huge, bloated, crashy pig on the desktop.
Guess what, Flash is a huge, bloated, crashy pig on mobile too! My N900 has flash 9.0. It can play YouTube. But most of the time, guess what, I avoid it. I know you’re trying Adobe but the experience is just pain, pain, pain and then more pain.
And to sum it up the single greatest improvement in Fennec 1.0RC3 over RC2 was disabling Flash by default. And guess what, it got snappier.
Yeah, my N900 has Flash but for some reason the first extension I installed was AdBlock …
