In like, 2005-2010ish I remember there being these awesome online games through sites like Mini Clip. All disappeared from the internet.

I understood it had something to do with Java? Or… some plug in? I don’t really understand what either of those mean.

What happened to online games?

      The internet was a nightmare already then and flash itself was at least a security nightmare.

        Not nearly as much as today, where a few sites control the majority of internet traffic.

        flash itself was at least a security nightmare.

        Agreed

          I didn’t say that the Internet nightmare of a decade ago is the same as the internet nightmare of today. It just got progressively worse.
