Make 3.0 look like 2.0 (to an extent)!
This is a life-saver imo. It makes the editor GUI look so much more comfortable. 
For all the chrome users out there, this is a plugin that you can use!
Here's the description:
Really thankful to them, because I can finally take a breather with the new GUI.
Also with the bugs popping up (and causing scratchers to drop like flies), I'm sure the wonderful Scratch Team will take care of that soon!

Here's the description:
3.0 Switcher allows the 3.0 editor to look somewhat like the 2.0 editor.I'm 99% sure this was made by @EncloCreations
Instructions:
1. Download the extension from (ok apparently extensions are banned for advertising… whoops)
2. Unzip the file somewhere
3. Go to chrome extensions
4. Enable developer mode (top right) and click load unpacked
5. It will prompt you to choose a folder choose the folder that has the main.html file (from the one you unzipped)
6. Once the extension shows up, click it and enable reversing

This is an extension and they are banned. The ST will close this topic and give you an alert.
I'd recommend removing the download link before this happens.

Here's some JS to move the stage back to the 2.0 location without downloading a Chrome extension:
document.querySelector('.gui_flex-wrapper_uXHkj').style.flexDirection = 'row-reverse';

Here's some JS to move the stage back to the 2.0 location without downloading a Chrome extension:This will only work as long as the custom ID of the gui_flex-wrapper is uXHkj, which I don't think is guaranteed (I might be wrong though). Something like this should be more reliable:document.querySelector('.gui_flex-wrapper_uXHkj').style.flexDirection = 'row-reverse';
document.querySelector('[class^=gui_flex-wrapper]').style.flexDirection = 'row-reverse';

This might make Scratch more comfortable for me. However, I am beginning to get used to the 3.0 editor.

I guess the reason for this is security concerns? Since when you install an extension, you never know what kind of code you get when the extension is updated? If this is the case a userscript might do the same job safer, since it cannot be installed unless you have first enabled a framwork like tampermonkey and it would be possible to review the code before you install.

This mixed version of scratch 3 and 2 is pretty cool.
Scratch team should have an option to turn this on or off

I have a chromebook personally, so I can follow your instructions but I don't know what the extension is called. Also, please reply and in the reply put the link to the extension. Thank you!
