Does CSS support scripting now? TBH I know nothing about CSS but I'm pretty sure it can only describe the style of a page.

Generally you're right, it doesn't support scripting. But you could, for example, insert text by using “:after” and “content”, or change the background image of the block editor to an inappropriate gif.

Somebody will get XSS working…

. There could be a report button, just like posts, users, or comments

When I saw the interface for Scratch 3.0, I seemed to like Scratch 2.0 interface better. So, I was thinking that we could keep the 2.0 interface for the next version.

Yeah something about the 3.0 Interface just doesn't feel right, for some reason after a few minutes of using it I get really annoyed by it and usually just stop. I miss Scratch 2.0; I would just use the Scratch 2.0 Version itself, but then I can't use cloud data.

Looks like this post has seen its days of blockspam and thread hijacking.

I don't think we are likely to implement this suggestion. The design choices of the Scratch editor for 3.0 were changed to make the editor as intuitive and friendly as possible. Going back to the 2.0 interface would undo years of the developers' hard work and research that were put into making this new interface. The two rejected suggestions below, although not quite the same as this suggestion, may have some more information regarding this idea.

Keep thinking of ways to improve Scratch, though! We always appreciate the feedback.

The Complete List of Rejected Suggestions wrote:
2.3 Set the editor to look like older versions of Scratch
Some users prefer the look and feel of the Scratch 2.0 editor, and have suggested that the editor look like Scratch 2.0, but still run off of HTML5 like Scratch 3.0 does. However, this would be more complicated for educational and documentation purposes. It could be confusing if someone is trying to learn Scratch from someone who is using a completely different layout of the editor than them.

In addition, the Scratch Team changed the design for a reason: to make it easier, more intuitive, and friendlier for newcomers to use. If you dislike the Scratch 3.0 editor, you can still download the Scratch 1.4 or Scratch 2.0 offline editors; for more information, see #2.4 on this list.

However, the Scratch Team is still considering adding options to change the block size inside the editor, an option to switch the side of the screen the stage is on, and an option for a dark mode interface. It may be some time, though, before these ideas are implemented; please be patient.

2.4 Revert back to older versions of Scratch
Scratch has to update sometimes in order to accommodate for certain changes. In particular, an online editor that ran off of Adobe Flash (rather than Java) was added in Scratch 2.0, and Scratch 3.0 was created for tablet support and in anticipation of the discontinuation of Flash. Changing the editor back to these older versions of Scratch would not only undo years of hard work by the Scratch Team, but also might not work online anymore. If you wish, you can download the Scratch 1.4 and Scratch 2.0 offline editors. However, the Scratch Team is likely no longer concerned with fixing any bugs with these offline editors.

The Scratch Team is still working on bug fixes, new features, and other improvements on Scratch 3.0. The new interface was created in such a way that it is easy for the Scratch Team to make new updates, and they are indeed continuously making new updates (although these updates and bug fixes take much longer to implement than you think). Do not worry, Scratch 3.0 is far from finished!
