Originally posted by oleid View PostI think it more has to do with Flash being linked to GTK2; currently it is not possible to use GTK2 and GTK3 in the same process, thus Flash won't work with a GTK3 built of firefox where the plugin lives in the same process as the browser gui.

Steve Jobs was right: the flash devs are lazy.
Not only didn't they bother making flash toolkit independent, but they don't even bother supporting newer toolkit versions.
On the other hand, there's Google's PPAPI plugin api, which dilutes any type of arguing in favor or against flash's support of other toolkits.
I don't know what to think. Firefox should be smarter and move to Qt5 which will support wayland.

That is Flash for now is the better option for HD content.
Using a Nvidia card.
Maybe HTML5 has Intel/AMD hw acceleration hence the Intel/AMD users might have a better experience.
