Is there an anti-Flash bias on Hacker News?
lionhearted: I like Flash in how it's implemented on Google Chrome - if it crashes, the flash plugin crashes and not your whole browser. I was annoyed when my iPhone couldn't play Youtube videos to show people, but the counterargument is that Flash is bad for battery life, which is obviously quite important on a mobile device. So I can see both sides. A mobile-optimized version of Flash that would be not hard on battery life would be great.
