I use Zorin OS which is built on Ubuntu but offers a range of GUIs, so it
can look like the version of Windows or whatever you're familiar with.

I use Fire Fox and have a YouTube down-loader that downloads the Flash files and converts them to mpeg4 for me at the same time. So who needs Adobe Flash itself now?

BTW Adobe dumped support for Linux as part of their campaign to help their proprietary mates over at Microsoft.

On a sidebar to that, because Flash doesn't work well with Linux a major organisation that was in the middle of developing a large application to work across the Internet in Flash has dumped the Flash development project and recently redid the application from scratch in non proprietary web code - mostly html and java - because they know many of the people who they wish to use the site use older versions of Windows or Linux as their operating system and thus not able to use the latest versions of Flash.
