It was way back in July 2017 that Adobe announced plans to end-of-life its Flash browser plug-in. Likewise, iPhone and iPad users won't be affected because Apple's mobile operating system has never supported Flash. The elimination of Flash support should not heavily impact users, given that most other popular browsers have already moved away from the format.

This means that when the next version of Safari is released, users will no longer be able to install or use Adobe Flash in the browser.

Safari Technology Preview is basically a beta of the next version of Safari proper, all but confirming that Apple is officially ditching support for Flash in the next version of its native Mac browser. As noted in our coverage yesterday of the latest Safari Technology Preview 99, Apple has removed all support for Adobe Flash.
