Gnash work with youtube and older flash content (ie AVM1, not
AVM2).  So it is not 100% useless.

Flash on the other hand is 99% useless, so it is better to avoid
pages requiring Flash and use any alternative there is.

It is normal that more pages work with flashplugin-nonfree, as it
support the newer format AVM2.  Unfortunately Adobe have dropped the
Linux plugin working with most browsers, so it will not keep working. :(

If we want Flash to keep working, we need to switch to Chrome, or fund
more free flash (Gnash/Lightspark) work.
