Did anyone seriously believe that though? Killing Flash is approximately the only good thing the existence of the iPhone brought to the world.
The only people at the time who thought it was a good idea were people that liked apple products. Everyone else just complained that the web was 90% flash, so iPads/iPhones are useless.
There was more outrage at lack of flash support than there was from removing optical drives, and people put up quite a stink with that as well.
I remember 2007 well enough that I can definitely say that that was not true in 2007. Flash was widespread, but nowhere near 90%.
no, just the fun parts were flash 😭
itch.io doesn't hit the same as newgrounds
Well, youtube and video streaming sites (including porn) were flash
Yes, those things definitely were.
