SAFARI 12 UPDATE
Updated to Safari 12, 9/17. Now, I am unable to view videos via Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime. Reason? Silverlight is not recognized with the update. Please provide a solution. Thank you.

I had to allow safari 12 to use the adobe flash player again. I opened up safari, clicked safari tab, preferences, websites and allowed access. Worked for me as well as let me use the legacy adblock plus in the extensions tab.
I am running a 2015, 13 inch mac book pro with Safari 12 and Mac OS Mojave, and I can no longer view Gumroad media which uses Flash. I have enabled flash for all websites in the preferences and restarted Safari and still cannot view the content. Any suggestions?
Some people have posted they were able to get it to work by reinstalling Silverlight.
Reinstalling Silverlight did not work. No extensions appear in Safari's preferences anymore.
I don't understand the need for Silverlight; it was deprecated long ago and I can watch Amazon Prime for one without any plugins whatsoever.
Sorry on my previous post, forgot to include, i have an early 2013 macbook pro, 2.4Ghz i7 processor. Hope this helps!
Thank you. I reinstalled Silverlight and it didn't work. I downloaded Chrome and all is well.
It is a Safari issue as Chrome does use HTML5 on my Mac Pro. Chrome's resolution using HTML5 isn't as good as Safari's.
I can't find anyway to turn on HTML5 in Safari12 on my mid 2010 Mac Pro (w/ 3GB Radeon 7950).
Running Google Chrome to view content should be a viable workaround for anyone experiencing this issue.
Its too bad Apple doesn't explain this as part of the upgrade information. It would be nice to know any negative effects an update like this would have.
Send feedback using the link posted earlier.
Already sent feedback days ago, as well as directly with support via chat. While it is a known issue there is no correction needed. We all just need to get the word out here on the communities...
To be fair, they did - the Safari 12 release notes explicitly state it no longer supports most NPAPI plugins, and Silverlight is a NPAPI plugin.
That is true, and as I (and Netflix) have stated, if you have a pre-2011 Mac you need to use Chrome or Firefox.
