#4I made it my new year's resolution in 2015 to have Flash disabled. For my use case, it works great. Longer battery, less heat, and the internet still works.
I do turn it on (enable) every now and then for some sites, but very few/infrequently and turn it off right after.

Flash - sure, since Adobe doesn't really care that much. But HTML5? That's in browser's hands and support depends on your browser choice only.
Did you mean any specific codec for video playback, or something else?

#10Seems like only a temporary block. Mozilla isn't brave enough to put it out of its misery like it belongs. Still some big sites using it though, like Twitch.
