Ruffle - Flash Emulator

Puts Flash back on the web where it belongs.

Ruffle - Flash Emulator Chrome Extension

Ruffle - Flash Emulator is a Chrome extension designed for seamless integration and easy usage. For pages with flash content, it auto-detects and converts the Flash content into a Ruffle player, 'polyfilling' it without need for any configuration. It also updates an older Ruffle to the latest version on websites with the extension installed. Built with Rust, it offers high security, avoiding historical Flash pitfalls. Open-sourced and volunteer maintained, contributions are welcome to help continue the preservation of internet history.

Works on most websites. Not perfect, but infinitely better than nothing and a valuable tool for accessing old information.
