adobe flash

Can AOL please stop with the reminder that Adobe Flash is not installed? Flash was discontinued by Adobe at the end of 2020. They recommend that it should be uninstalled, since it is (was) a buggy product and a security risk.

    AOL no longer knows what to do with Flash being uninstalled. It also takes on average between 17 and 23 seconds between logging on and welcome screen/email to appear.

    I can do this on my phone or using Windows 10 mail in about 20 seconds.

    The email box itself is bloated with ads that are obviously the most updated and worked on 'feature' of this necromancy of software. I still use it, now that the awful Desktop Gold version is no longer a mandatory part of this, but man if they'd just give up on the whole masquerading as a social media outlet where actual chat interactions and information that deviates from outrage and politics to things that might actually be interesting.

    Please, overhaul this mess, the ad revenue can't be more than operating costs, just ******* cull it, take from the Windows10 mail module and rebuild it as a Lite app. Save what little face AOL has left, it deserves more love than this, after all these years we still haven't optimized it for the (at the time) modern technology it was supposedly supporting.

    Verizon owns you? There really needs to be a dialog at the adult's table where these things can be discussed. There's no reason I should utilize three different email clients that aren't affiliated with AOL in anyway to check my AOL because desktop gold is a sluggish defective set of bandaids.

    Hear me AOL, we still matter
