Honestly why hasn't there been a flash-like competitor or alternative that has filled the gap of creatives being able to quickly produce content and distribute it easily on the internet? I think the HTML5 folks envisioned <audio/> and <canvas/> being all you need for interactive stuff, but that hasn't really come to fruition. For animated content, is it perhaps YouTube that took over? |

There is, it's called Adobe Animate, its what they rebranded Flash as, it's literally the same thing. It exports straight to Canvas and WebGL using the create.js libraries. [0]
Basically the online advertising space had a collective heart attack when Flash was suddenly deprecated because they used Flash for all their banner animations. Adobe tried to replace Flash with Edge [1], which was one of the slowest and buggiest program I ever used. It didn't last long.
