Honestly, the moderation is still terrible since the moderation is made up of bots that auto-detect you doing whatever and then automatically muting you for no reason at all. Don't know what line of code they use, but they should've throw that in the garbage and rewrite everything. Well- not everything but you get it.

What does this have to do anything

i guess html5 and blockly i guess

Scratch definitely does not use scratch.

But That Would Be Cool

Scratch uses HTML5 and JavaScript, while 2.0 used Flash, and apparently ActionScript. (citation needed)

Scratch is a block-based visual programming language, which means it doesn't use a traditional text-based programming language like Python, Java, or C++. Instead, it uses its custom language designed to be easy to learn and understand, especially for kids.

However, the Scratch website and online editor do use other programming languages behind the scenes, such as HTML5, JavaScript, and PHP.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

I believe this and this may help change your view.

Scratch uses both Python and JavaScript, actually.

Most of Scratch is written in JS, but there are a few files in scratch-blocks that are Python. There's also some Shell, and a little bit of scratch-desktop is written in Ruby. Not to mention the HTML and CSS scattered throughout, and some .svg data.

Scratch 2.0 was primarily written in ActionScript, and all versions of Scratch up to 2.0 (not including 2.0) were written in Squeak, a language developed by Disney Imagineering (the people responsible for every Disney theme park ride in existence) for internal use and that has been public for some time, with some code on the side written in things like C if I recall correctly.

Edit: and some parts of ScratchJr for Android are written in Java.
