They could change the motto from “Imagine, Program, Share” to “Powering imagination and learning since 2007”

Why?

Why? and Imagine, Program, Share is better.

The old motto is more of a list, this one is a more complete sentence.

But this concept motto includes the founding year of Scratch and also focuses on the learning part of Scratch.

sounds too unfriendly and too similar to roblox's motto: “powering imagination”

that sounds a bit too much like roblox.
Therefore you have no support from me.

like others said sounds too much like Roblox’s
tbh scratch’s current motto is fine

Honestly?
Imagination is what drives us,
programming is what we literally do,
sharing is what we do once we believe we are finished.
No support as the current motto is perfectly fit.

Here is why I do not support.
1. It's way too similar to roblox's motto.
2. It's less simple and more unfriendly.
3. The Image program share is more like the website than the suggestion.

These are reasons I don't support.

It’s not constructive to restate reasons other people said///
The motto right now is fine, and focuses on what scratchers do, instead of the scratch website and what it does. The motto also feels more formal, like a big business, instead of a small team or something; like they don’t actually care. It also gets rid of the share part of scratch

Ok let me edit it. Edit: done.

Ok seriously, who would want to listen to someone say “Scratch, Powering imagination and learning since 2007”? Motto's are supposed to be simple.

But someone saying “Scratch, imagine, program, share!” is music to my ears. Simple, more enthusiastic, and just sounds better being said.

Oh look!
copyright infringement (its roblox’s moto)

no support

also the old one is easier to say and understand

No support, “Imagine, Program, Share” sounds more like Scratch
Also, if the Scratch Team were to use the “powering imagination and learning since 2007” motto, there's a chance Roblox can sue the Scratch Team because Roblox copyrighted “Powering Imagination”
and no one would want to hear news about a big web game suing the staff team of a kid's coding site because of two words

So you know how YouTube's motto was “Broadcast Yourself”? That's basically what Scratch is telling what you can do with Scratch. Imagine, Program and Share. There's not really a need to change this since what's the point of the 2007 motto thing when it's not that catchy as what Scratch has.

No support at all.

“Finger lickin good” is better than “licking fingers since 1952”

The whole point of a motto is to have a simple, concise and memorable set of words that describes the thing in question. The current one is way better on all four counts.

No support.
1. Too similar to roblox's motto. “Powering Imagination”.
2. Current motto Imagine, Program, Share is better.
3. Why would a person whos like 8 just goes on Scratch and suddenly sees the date Scratch was created?
