i miss sites like in4mador and i miss the web before apple killed flash
flash was good and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong, the security stuff was steve jobs FUD that all the proto-facebook-techy types who never played a flash game in their lives bought into
"but flashpoint" flashpoint is a very good and nice attempt at preserving history but preserving history does not restore a killed culture. you can no longer get the flash authoring software and you can no longer make new flash games. flashpoint won't solve that
apple and facebook combined have done irreparable damage to the web culture that i dare compare to a burning of alexandria
"what about google" google has done plenty to murder web standards and return us to a monopoly worse than 1998 microsoft's, but in terms of web *culture* most of what they killed was their own. facebook killed personal websites and apple killed plugins which enabled web games
i am fucking furious at the current malaise era of the internet and how very little and extremely concentrated (in a bad way) efforts are being done at all to overthrow it
move fast and break things unless it's for fun instead of venture capital
