We areentering a year that will mark the end of an era on the internet in general. Since August, Google Chrome has put a message to users saying that the Flash Player will be discontinued on New Year's Eve 2020. After then, all Flash files will be virtually unplayable. Enjoy 2020 like if nothing else will come soon. Welcome to the year-long celebration of Flash.

One of the things that have been abandoned by sites in general were long and painful intros, some of them were unskippable. Zombo.com took this concept to ridiculous extremes, as the site consists just of this animation and nothing else. Zombo.com is one of the few websites that will virtually be unaccessible in 2021. An HTML5 version can be found here: html5zombo.com/

Mausland's website seems to be down. It was working a few months ago.
Either way, it hasn't been updated in years.

Transformice, once one of the most popular MMORPGs of the late 2000s/early 2010s, might collapse as it's still running on Flash.

One of those alternatives to YouTube, BitView, uses FLV to "imitate" old YouTube. www.bitview.net/
