There are some reasons, like Adobe not being able to maintain anything properly(they killed off one bug, but made two more), and the unpolite behaviour with users’ personal info, to earn more money(look up "adobe flash data miner"). Am I right?

Yes, the reason why Adobe Flash died can be traced to several factors:
1-Security Vulnerabilities
2-Performance Issues.
3-Lack Of Mobiles Support.
4-Industry Shift to HTML5.
5-End-of-life Announcement by Adobe.
6-Changing Web Standards and Accessibilities Access.
As far as I know, it was mostly security related.
With a huge part of the tech world running Flash, it became a massive target for hackers. It also offered poor performance, causing some users to see full CPU usage when viewing web pages with Flash content.
