It will be interesting to see how many sites haven't bothered converting to HTML5, even through Adobe started encouraging the switch 5+ years ago.

It had a good run. But it was time. Actually, long past time.
What's worse is the stuff that doesn't normally get updated. Recently I was looking at a blog post--referencing a missing chart. The chart was done in Flash. At least I run the Flashblock extension so I knew what had happened.
