I have been reading a magazine and it told me you can use pictures for those who are color-blind. I really hope Scratch Team can add icons in the palette and on blocks (every block, not just the extensions) and so color-blind people can still use it easily, without actually needing to read the block and think about its category (since that is confusing).
Motion: A running person with lines at the back
Looks: An eye
Sounds: A speaker with soundwaves
Events: A green flag
Control: A looping icon, as in browsers' refresh icon
Sensing: A hand
Operators: Numbers and/or operations
Variables: “x” in algebra
My Blocks: A block with text “define”
Other extensions remain like how they look like in Scratch 3
I REALLY HOPE YOU CAN ADD THAT

Let's just see how the high contrast blocks work with color-blind people, but I'm sure the high contrast will work and can solve that issue.

Did you get inspiration from the forbidden word feature? This sounds a lot like it.

If you are asking what forbidden word is, it is a extension but we're unable to give you the name of it due to scratch's extension policy stating not to name extensions.Did you get inspiration from the forbidden word feature? This sounds a lot like it.

Oh. Actually, no, I don't think mine is inspired by anything like that. It's some sort of icon that some other scratch mods already have, but I think it could improve.

I had to disable the square icons since it was breaking it LOL, and I forgot to remove the variables tab since I was trying to see how it worked now but didn't turn it off.

Ohh… Okay then, but just to clarify, I made this up myself.
