How to play Facebook videos without Adobe Flash player using Firefox?

I'm using Fedora 21 and using Mozilla Firefox, the latest version.

When I had Adobe Flash (flash-plugin) installed, my Computer was freezed at least 4 times in a day, and Gnome shell crashed a lot.

I suspected Adobe flash, and indeed, since I removed it, no single crash and freeze so far (2 weeks).

I very like the Youtube HTML5 player, and I wonder if there is any way to play Facebook videos in HTML5, or something similar.

Any extention or modify.

I believe that the solution isn't depends the operating system, so if you have a solution for Windows, I would like to hear.

I would be really glad to get helped. Thanks in advance.


Solution 1:

I have not personally tested the following suggestions. You should be able to add the m prefix before the URL, which would allow you to view the video without flash.

Example: m.facebook.com

The following Firefox extension might also do the job, I have not tested this.
