Flash was developed when the majority of users had desktops with no battery issues. laptops were not used for internet unless they were plugged in somewhere. The power demand was a non-issue. But with the increasing mobile society, power consumption is important. New technologies are needed to make mobile computing a better experience. That means better batteries, better system battery management, and off system experiences that do not use a great deal of juice.
There was a time when a great number of sites required Internet Explorer to function. Then the consumers raised a ruckus and they created web sites that recognized other browsers. Flash was a necessity once, but its antiquity is too apparent and the consumers are letting people know that with their experiences with and without Flash. I have to feel that the majority of users of Flash have began the process of moving away from it. The only ones left are those who are too lazy, or do not understand what is going on and do not want to upgrade their site. And that is a common problem with those who think that computers and computers systems are forever.
