That beeing said, Flash is a piece of CPU-hogging unstable piece of junk. It sucks an extreme amount of CPU compared to the task, and it does cause chrashes a lot of the time, also in windows. (browser crashes, not total system chrashes)

My sentiments exactly.

I was wrong about Flash.  It's going away.  Chrome will start to move away from it later this year:

Google will warn first, then allow use of their flash player.

Awesome Donkey:
Thankfully HTML5 has since become a thing.

I, for one, won't allow Flash to touch this computer. I do hope that Firefox and Edge soon follow suit. I also hope that Microsoft stops forcing Flash through Windows Update - I don't want nor need it automatically installed and updated.
