Without needing websites to do anything, the browser extension will automatically replace any Flash content on websites

Without needing websites to do anything, the browser extension automatically replaces any Flash content on websites with the Ruffle player.
The extension will automatically negotiate with websites that do have Ruffle installed, to ensure that there is no

will always take precedence and disable the other.

[latest build](https://ruffle-rs.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/builds/extension/ruffle_extension_latest.zip)
