I hear what your are saying but it doesn´t make much sense that an application that is designed to be easy for newcomers isn´t better at getting new people to use it. Apples products just to make a comparison was designed to be easy to use without the user having to become a computer a computer engineer to master the most simple tasks. But that seems to be the situation quite frankly...

Are you using Apple computer? If you are then its strange for sure. If you're using Windows then it makes more sense. Flash has been found to contain many, many security issues for Windows users over the years. Most software developers will not use Flash in their products now because of this fact. Adobe has discontinued developing Adobe Flash products because of this, for example, and have urged users to disable it on their computers. This wasn't just Windows computers, it was Windows, Linux, and any other platform using Adobe products.

Earlier this year, Apple said goodbye to Flash in their Safari browser too. So as of 2020, Flash is a dead technology as far as most software developers are concerned.

The solution for you, if you really must use that old version of Poser might be to find an older computer to run it on, or install a dual boot that contains Windows 7 or earlier OS that will allow Flash apps to run. Just keep that computer offline when you do, because Flash is a gateway for malware now.
