On debian multimedia there are packages for flashplayer

ii  flashplayer-chromium                    32.0.0.344-dmo1                                  
amd64        Flash Player for Chromium (Pepper)
ii  flashplayer-mozilla                     3:32.0.0.344-dmo1+deb10u1                        
amd64        Adobe Flash Player

they work pretty well.

Flash is being discontinued by Adobe, but still many sites use it and are
not migrating to HTML5.

I guess it will be required.

The java script thingie you enable/disable in your browser.
