I wouldn't say iOS was the sole killer of Flash. At the time of "Thoughts on Flash", Flash was still widely used, but hardly anyone thought it will be around forever. Youtube offered a HTML5 video option at the time already.
A large number of power users also outright hated it and blocked it by default, for its use for CPU-heating animated ads and its security issues.
Steve Jobs letter where he criticized Flash was a big accelerator to the process. Plus iOS was number one mobile operation system at some point (by the number of users)
Fixed typo. Thanks
