Flash as a technology should never be used now unless for artistic purposes.
However, it's preservation to be able to run & archiving of flash media are an absolute cornerstone of any attempt to archive the 2000s internet. Flash introduced & inspired countless people who have no doubt gone on to build amazing things in other technologies.
I love flash. I'm glad it's not used anymore, but I truly love the content it produced from the bottom of my heart.
Long live Flash & special mention to Macromedia Shockwave.
