For me it is April fools and I cant see anything. There was also no talk about it. Is this some kind of joke?

No, this is a serious question, and if it changes as soon as it's april 1st then it would be whatever timezone scratch is based in (the time on a post)

I guess you'll just have to wait to find out.
We're almost there

Happy april fools

Oh dear. I found some sad news for you Xzillox

Im not sure if it just means forums but…

p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-

There is a semicolon at the bottom of every page. As far as I can tell, that's it unfortunately.

I've seen that. It's just forums.

I think that's automated because a few days ago, I saw a script in the html code of a page on the forums that went something like this:

const date = new Date()                              // gets the current date
if (date.getDate() == 1 && date.getMonth() == 3) {   //checks if it's April 1st
document.write(';')                                  // adds the semicolon?
}
 
// date.getMonth() returns numbers from '0' - '11' so April is '3'
// I don't know if it actually does the thing because AFAIK document.write() deletes the whole page

So, unless other features are also set on local time, as soon as the date in your computer changes to April 1st, only the semicolon will appear.

Also, as I'm writing this it's 10:35, so I'm technically 5 minutes late for AFD. Moment of truth…

It sets in with your personal time zone, not scratch's. Reporting to be closed as resolved.

In tfh there were people saying the semicolon was showing up, however it was not for me. As soon is it turned to April 1st in my time zone the semicolon appeared (after reloading the page, of course).
