Wired: How the iPad is reshaping the internet without Flash
ValleyWag: What Steve Jobs said during his Wall Street Journal iPad demoĪnd is there any hope for the future? Well, maybe in an Flash-free world, thanks to the iPad: Here’s a few options to consider:įurther reading on the Flash in Mac OS X and iPad/iPhone/iPod debacle: Other than voicing your complaints (Adobe must be listening somewhere, and hopefully addressing the problem), I think the best thing for Mac users who are fed up with Flash’s performance is to simply add a Flash blocker to their web browser. Ok enough is enough, what can I do as a Mac user? I wish! If you’re looking for a sure-fire way to meltdown your Mac browser with some Flash, check out BB 2.0, the collaborative music project, where you’re supposed to play various YouTube videos to create your own music… fancy idea but I can’t play more than 8 videos at a time on my Mac without whatever browser becoming totally unresponsive, with Firefox fairing the worst and requiring a Forced Quit to return to sanity (for the record, I can play them all on a relatively weak Windows Netbook next to me, in any browser). I don’t believe you, Flash on the Mac is beautifully written and a wonderful compliment to any web browser, it’s full of soft flowers and will bake you cakes and tuck you into bed, all while only using 1% of CPU when running 600 YouTube Videos! This is what people are complaining about, and this is exactly why Apple doesn’t want Flash on their touch devices. Load a Flash-based site and your MacBook Pro will sound like it’s preparing to enter Earths orbit. It doesn’t matter how good your browser is, the Flash plugin will probably screw it up by taking over every possible CPU cycle.
Apple’s problems with the Adobe Flash plugin have been in tech news a lot recently, so we’re going to show what the complaints are about.
