Did something recently change with flash? I'm on Linux

Hello, I saw this thread about Java:
viewtopic.php?f=43&t=15981
I'm on Linux [Manjaro] as well but thought to create a new thread because to the best of my knowledge this is about Flash.
At Bank of America they have a product called "shopsafe" that opens in a little window. You can create vendor specific "virtual" credit card numbers with it.
It's been working fine for years, but just over the past week I get "a plugin is needed to display this content". The same thing just started happening in Firefox with Shopsafe, with a little puzzle symbol in the window.
After some research I found that Google Chrome was supposed to be Flash friendly, after installing it too would not work. Then [strangely] after trying it and reloading a bunch of times it suddenly gave me an option to choose to allow flash. I can now access the Shopsafe. However, I would prefer to continue with Pale Moon, where I do a bunch of related business type stuff.
Question: I look at my palemoon plugins and it says "you don't have any add-ons of this type" [!!?]. Wouldn't that be where Adobe Flash is shown? I also used the link from the other thread to check for Java, looks like I don't have that either. So, how was I accessing the Shopsafe all these years? It definitely requires a plugin, from my experience with Chrome I'd say it is Flash.
thanks for any info!
