Not many web pages still use Flash in 2020, and Adobe plans on disabling support for their legacy plugin this year.
For one, Flash, in particular, is considered a security risk. Plugins like Adobe’s Flash Player require a lot of power to run on your device, and although Flash is usually enabled to show certain content within your browser, it might be a good idea to disable it. On its own, Google Chrome hogs quite a lot of your system resources, and with Flash-the last remaining built-in plugin as of 2017-running in the background of your PC, it can be even worse. If your browser has been running slow today, the first thing you’ll want to turn your attention to is Flash.
