I noticed that some of the pages are still using the 2.0 layout, maybe consider changing those pages to 3.0?

There are already plans to update them, it just takes a while.

Here is a quote from a Scratch Team member

The Scratch website is non-profit, which means a lot of forward-facing features can often take a backseat due to things like lack of sufficient grant money for specific features or other issues (like legal compliance or backend fixes) taking first priority. So unless there's a genuine justification for updating pages to 3.0, I think we can deal with 2.0 a little longer.

oh ok

really? I can see by their tax returns that they currently have over £10 million to spend. Of course they shouldn't spend all of that, but that's enough resources to update something outdated. It's been 5 years since 3.0 came out. They should've been updated by now, particuarly as they aren't working on anything it seems like at the moment.

There's also the ‘expenses’ part on the right. Running a website has ongoing costs and tasks, like server upkeep, site moderation, and so on.

set [foo v] to [something]
forever {
set [foo v] to (join (foo)(foo))
} :: control

// just your typical code
green is {
an ({apple :: hat #8fd97e}@addInput::ring #55993a) :: #7bc24f cap
}some text<>{
if not (☁ score :: pen) {
{rainbow [#de0909][#ffaa0d][#ffe70a][#7ccf00][#00cf79][#0072cf][#8d00cf] :: #7bc24f reporter}@addInput :: hat pen
}:: #6a8c32
} block [with v] ([text] :: #a8cc5a) ? :: #6a8c32

I know that. Yes, they made a loss in 2022. But that's the first loss they ever made on record (since 2013) and before that they were making profits in the millions for 5 years straight from 2017-2021 (in the 2 millions in 2019-2021, 3 million in 2018, 1 million in 2017). They have over 11 million in the bank yet the developers aren't updating outdated pages? It should've been done by now.
