Considering that Adobe Flash is going to stop working at the end of this year (from what I've read), will there be any alternative methods in place to view the videos on Bumpworthy, or will that be the end of the road for this site, as it were?

Don't worry.  We've been using HTML5 video instead of Flash since around 2011, I believe.

If the browser doesn't support HTML5 video, then it will fall back to a Flash player, but that should be rare nowadays since most browsers support HTMl5 video.

Good to know. I was asking because I can't play the videos on site on my current browser (Mozilla Firefox, Windows 10) without having to run Flash Player.

My current smartphone (Samsung Galaxy A20) that I had for the past year doesn't let me even see the box where the videos typically go, unless I switch google chrome to desktop mode. Whereas on other phones I was able to see the videos just fine. I wonder if that has anything to do with Flash or not?
