On April 14, 2015, Google released Chrome v42, disabling the NPAPI by default. This makes plugins that do not have a PPAPI plugin counterpart incompatible with Chrome, such as Java, Silverlight and Unity.

In the NPAPI architecture, a plugin declares content types (e.g. "audio/mp3") that it can handle. When the ...
Unlike CGI programs, NSAPI plug-ins run inside the server process. Because CGI programs run outside of the server process, CGI programs are generally slower than NSAPI plug-ins. However, running outside of the server process can improve server reliability by isolating potentially buggy applications from the server software and from each other.

Pipelight is a compatibility layer that allows NPAPI plugins designed for Windows to run on Linux. It is based on a modified version of Wine. It currently supports Silverlight, Flash Player, Unity 3D, and Widevine. There is experimental support for additional plugins such as Shockwave Player.
NPAPI plugins, such as Adobe Flash Player, are also supported. The browser's entire user interface can be customized by complete themes and lightweight themes are also available.

Flashpoint Archive (formerly BlueMaxima's Flashpoint) is an archival and preservation project that allows browser games, web animations and other general rich web applications to be played in a secure format, after all major browsers removed native support for NPAPI/PPAPI plugins in the mid-to-late 2010s as well as the plugins' deprecation.
