The title of this article is incorrect and misleading.

I actually enjoy disappointing all the Flash haters out there crowing the last few days that "Flash is dead!": there is a whole lot of confusion about this. The free Adobe Flash Player web browser plugin is end of life in 3 years. But Flash is very much alive... it has been given a new name = Adobe Animate and still does everything it did before plus it outputs to HTML5 and JavaScript. It does way more in HTML5 than "simple HTML5 animations"!!!!
.
Flash Player is ending because the SWF output is no longer necessary. Again Flash lives with a new name and a new preferred output = HTML5 and JavaScript.
.
All this Flash is dead and Flash is doomed nonsense is ridiculous. I wish people would educate themselves instead of mindlessly repeating silly clickbait!

So FLASH LIVES! Flash haters can cry me a river. :-)
