I read article under name of "9 Reasons Flash Must Die, And Soon"
Flash entered our lives around the same time as the World Wide Web, though it began its existence as a drawing program for PenPoint OS. It wasn't until1996, after Macromedia bought the original developer, that Flash received a new name and a new mission -- enabling animation on websites. Macromedia continued to develop Flash until the company was acquired by Adobe in2005. Under Adobe, Flash became a Web animation juggernaut.
It didn't take long for the backlash to build. Flash had some notable issues and at least one famous detractor -- Steve Jobs's2010 open letter listing the reasons Flash wasn't part of the iOS universe was for some a watershed moment. The hate for Flash wasn't universal, though: Air, the system that allows Flash to be used as the basis for standalone applications, was named the best mobile development environment at CES for both2014 and2015.
Air isn't enough reason to save Flash, though. It's no longer required, and the alternatives have become better with each passing year. This week, another nail in the coffin arrived when Mozilla prevented Flash from running on its Firefox browser. It's time, therefore, for Flash to ride into the sunset (probably in an animated clip featuring kittens riding cartoon unicorns).

The very quick answer would be ---- Yes. But it will linger on. After the introduction of HTML5 which is now universally accepted in all of the browsers flash use will come down to very much. The problem with Flash now is that there is a separate plugin which you need to install in your browser. for HTML5 its pre-builtin all new browser so you don't need to add any thing extra.
Flash has also caused lots of security leaks which actually caused Mozilla to Ban flash in first place but now they have lifted the ban after the fix.
In my opinion flash will die but lets see....
