Adobe Flash cut off

Hi Group,
I was talking to a client this morning that mentioned in passing that they haven't yet started to analyse how much Flash content they have on their LMS. I was amazed seeing as how much notice we've all had that Adobe will officially end support and distribution of Flash Player at the end of 2020.
I was wondering if other Totara Solution Partners are seeing this too? did Totara Learn customers have so much notice that they have just left it in their "to do" list?
I'd be interested to hear from others as to their experiences.

Hi Andy,

18 months ago we had some fun with a campaign called the 'Flash Apocalypse'  https://www.catalyst.net.nz/products/flashapocalypse  and open sourced a special site report that finds Flash files in your site. This might be worth a look.  The campaign, very briefly, trended on Twitter: https://twitter.com/search?q=flashapocalypse

Among our client base, which includes a lot of Government & Health agencies, many had significant quantities of Flash and have had a lot of work arising from this.

Cheers
Austen
