End of Adobe Flash support
Adobe just announced that Adobe Flash support will end on December 31, 2020.
In the mean time, browsers will be gradually putting more restrictions on Flash.
This will be interesting for legacy Scratch support. 0.x-1.4 will still work but 2 will be fairly unusable (unless you want to use a highly vulnerable, out-of-support software ).
Discuss!

Scratch will probably be fine because Scratch 3.0 doesn't require Flash–I think the Scratch 2 mods may be hit the worst, as well as the people who want to run old versions. But the Flash game websites will be hit HARD! This is not only bad for scratch, its bad for TONS of websites with adobe flash player

I really hope Adobe at the very least releases the source code for the Flash plugin a reasonable time before it is entirely deprecated, so we can Emscripten it to WebAssembly to play old Flash games.
