As an interested new Fedora user, who would like to avoid proprietary
software - is Gnash the way I should be looking? I've heard of another
project, swfdec, but never been told which option is better
supported/has more developer activity/tends to work best.
Flash usage for me is fairly limited, I only use flash for last.fm
<http://last.fm>, youtube, and menus on websites. Unfortunately, it is a
necessary evil due to my employment.
I've been attempting to go the Adobe route (due to seemingly not having
an option) - but this is a pain on 64-bit Linux. Any input would be very
much appreciated!
For similar uses, I have been using swfdec in rawhide recently and it
works very well. I am not a heavy users and I avoid flash as much as
possible so this experience is certainly not authoritative but you
should definitely give it a try
# yum install swfdec-mozilla swfdec
Gnash does work with Youtube but not as successful for me in other
websites. In either case, I do recommend file bug reports just in case,
swfdec doesn't work for you. The developer is quite responsive.
