Adobe announced today that Flash Professional will transition to Adobe Animate CC. The next version will focus on HTML5 standards-based animations with Flash fallback.

I guess they had to do something. Flash has become a dirty word in many circles. Even some browsers won't show Flash content or will allow the user to block it. They might do better to just go with a whole new program with no Flash in it at all. I believe they'd get a better response.

I fail to see what changing the name of the app that exports Flash files is going to do. It's not like they got rid of the Flash Player for your web browser, or the Flash format. Nobody has a problem with the Flash Pro app, it's the damn format that everyone hates.

Until every nickel and dime website gets rid of their stupid Flash games and navigation, we're stuck with the format, no matter what they do with the app that creates it.
