Requested feature overview description.
Unity Web-Player / webGL filetype support for uploads.

Why would it be useful?
Adobe is dropping support for flash by the end of this year, webGl is a good upgrade and has a straightforward implementation.

Also, with Adobe ending Flash, there will be a lot less developers making content in Flash as a result.

What part(s) of the site page(s) are affected?
Anyone who enjoys all the games / interactive content here will be glad to have a much more modern replacement.

Creators will also have an easier time creating this type of content compared to Flash.

WebGL runs much better than Flash, with much less security risks.

Maybe expand on this to allow uploading of 3D models as well.

Theoretically that can be done via webgl... It depends on your purpose of uploading the model?
Showing it off as art you'd definitely want to put it in a web-gl app.
Or are you just hosting it for people to download? In which case it might more sense to post a screenshot w/ link to the download.

Last time I checked and this has been discussed about, the main issues are that there's no standartized way of uploading content as single file.

Old unity plugin and flash did have the files in single .unity3d and .swf files respectively, but these were actually never meant to be shareable single files but was mostly limitation of the technology of how they were running in the browser. Technically it would've been easy to allow .unity3d uploads though.

Additionally there's problems with security as well as no other site allowing upload of these outside newgrounds and itch.io, so content would be scarce and limited to artists uploading directly their own content.

iirc dumbass browser devs shot down that npapi shit that ran most unity web content
>plus no common-video-format-excluding-webm upload support still

Unity themselves also deprecated the format in the way of native HTML5 export.
Also even now most video formats are either too fresh and/or not supported by everything.
