I like how you didn't answer this part. VThey most likely won't abandon Scratch. Even if they do, the software is still perfectly usable…Even if it's own company dislikes it. If Scratch Team abandons Scratch, would you still use it?

Yes. You see my point? If Adobe abandons Flash, I can still use it.I like how you didn't answer this part. VThey most likely won't abandon Scratch. Even if they do, the software is still perfectly usable…Even if it's own company dislikes it. If Scratch Team abandons Scratch, would you still use it?

Yes, but HTML5 and Javascript run slow on my computer, and even Scratch has it's security issues. Scratch is pretty slow and insecure (loading is handled in HTML5, loading causes more lag than the project itselfEven if it's own company dislikes it. If Scratch Team abandons Scratch, would you still use it?Depends on why they abandon itIf its slow and insecure, of course, I would switch!

I'm not “controlling” you (wat) and why don't you look at the graphs you posted a link to?You can't control me. Anyway, Flash is still extremely popular, and if you don't believe me? Newgrounds : From 1995 to 2016 almost every game is in Flash. Kongregate : We also have a ton of Flash games. Also, just because a language isn't “Trendy” or “Popular” doesn't mean I can't use it, and also, look! This is the current height of Flash's usage! It's much higher than Javascript or Silverlight, and only a bit lower than Java. This means that it is used by many high-traffic sites, and those sites should know what they are doing. Also, Javascript is used by many lower-quality sites.Nope. I'm packing up. I'm leaving. NOPE! If they're changing which will ultimately remove all my hard work in 2.0, then I'm leaving.Scratch 3.0 will be backwards compatible with Scratch 2.0. How many times have I posted that on this topic?It's good I'm getting Flash 7 in 2017, because NOPE. Also, Flash isn't “dying,” as many describe. Youtube is Flash. Any website you've seen probably uses Flash. There are entire websites made in Flash. (LAWLOLAWL is in Flash. Jonochrome is in Flash. What more must I say? Oh, and I'd consider Newgrounds Scratch, using Flash-developed games.) So Flash is not dying, and if this is what you want, fine. But I'm leaving.YouTube's old player uses Flash, but the current player doesn't use Flash at all. Because old software still depends on Flash doesn't at all mean it isn't dying.
Edit : I can't go anywhere without people bashing my opinion. I'm not making you use Flash 7, and I don't need to know how popular Flash is. Even if it's own company dislikes it. If Scratch Team abandons Scratch, would you still use it?

JavaScript is on the “used by many sites” side. Flash doesn't even come close.
