there is something like HTML5 already out.
Try to have a look on http://www.youtube.com/html5 and then search for
HTML5 support for your favorite browser and you will get an answer.
Hmmm. They are saying I'm participating in a test and seamonkey
supports Video-Tag and WebM (whatever that is) and doesn't support
h.264. They are saying chromium supports all of it.
How do I get h.264 support in seamonkey?
I'll gladly remove the stupid flash player, I always hated it. Yet when
I go to [1] for a test, neither seamonkey nor chromium play flash. Now
what?
HTML 5 and a video =/= Flash. Also,
Shockwave =/= Flash.
Shockwave (predecessor to Flash) is about dead, and Flash itself is on
its way to being abandoned, and the less well-supported OSes will lose
it first.
What you have to do is wait for your web site(s) to move to the new thing.
< Hm and I have installed these xul-ext-* things packages, i. e. adblock,
flashblock and flashgot. They don't seem to work with chromium, it says
I don't have any extensions. Are they for other browsers only? If they
don't work, I can't use chromium. These adds are too annoying.
XUL is a Mozilla thing. Debian packages it as a separate entity.
Chrome/Chromium has its own plugins/addons. Go to Google for some of those.

Shockwave is not Flash.
