Same here.

Nothing intrinsically wrong with plugins that are instantly available on every platform.

Hope you keep being positive when Flash, ActiveX, Java, Silverlight get reimplemented in WebAssembly.

That would actually be fantastic. We'd get to preserve all the old stuff built with them, while running it in the browser's sandbox rather than giving it full access to the machine.
