Ask HN: watching online video without Flash?

4 points

16 years ago

I have a very simple goal: I want to disable 3rd party plug-ins in my browsers. Flashblock doesn't work for me because it reports the presence of Flash to google analytics, and I really want my visits to count as "no flash detected" because I want it to be a thing in the past.

Currently I always have it disabled, but it's annoyting to hit a good video and having to go to preferences/plugins/enable... However, the iPhone and Android oftentimes can do that. How?

Here's a good video I'd like to watch without having to enable that arcane tech from the gloomy Internet of the 90s... http://blip.tv/file/98282
