At the time (2013ish), I was working with a company that used to make a lot of very cool stuff in Flash; we were already starting most new projects in HTML5, and (coincidentally) the company was also growing like crazy (also in terms of new hires).

With that, at one point we actually started running low on physical space in the office. We've had a running joke (started by a Flash dev of course) that we'll just move all of the remaining Flash guys to the toilet...

But in all honesty, Flash was a terrible, absolutely horrible technology. I was lucky enough that I've only had to work with it from the backend, but I still remember the dread.

I think Adobe missed a huge opportunity where they could have built new tooling and a framework to target HTML5.
