I've read that Linux has two open-source alternatives, Gnash and
Lightspark. Any opinions on which is best? And what about installing both?

Oops. Should have looked before asking that last question. I see Lightspark is a dependency for Gnash.

But do they make a functional alternative to Adobe's offering...

I tried Gnash a couple of years ago and wasn't impressed. But now I block flash by default (and rarely unblock) so I couldn't say. When I tried it before, it could be installed the same time as Flash. The latest version is in core. So why not try it and see ?

As I understand it, Adobe is planning to phase out support for all flash in favour of something based on HTML5, but I could be mistaken.
