Adobe Flash Player stopped updating as early as the end of 2020, ending its 25-year glorious history. After being acquired by a company from China, it has become extremely difficult to use, unusable, and even disgusting. However, there are still many high-quality and even irreplaceable SWF format of resources on the Internet. So is there an alternative solution that can give these SWF contents a new lease of life? The answer is yes, it is Ruffle.
