Scratch 4.0?
Is there any release date for Scratch 4.0? I feel like it would be amazing especially if scratch took a few community suggestions.
Does anyone know anything about this?

If they add dark mode, they probably wouldn't wait for a full major version darn it. i hope dark mode gets added though, the less features scratch has, the more people use mods

Adding dark mode wouldn't be that hard to do. Just swapping a CSS stylesheets for another CSS stylesheets (if you have no idea what CSS is, it stands for Cascading Style Sheets, and is used to style websites).good point, I was just thinking about it as https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/827943393/If they add dark mode, they probably wouldn't wait for a full major version darn it. i hope dark mode gets added though, the less features scratch has, the more people use mods
I don't think that they will make Scratch 4.0 anytime soon:
Source: I am not aware of any release dates being announced so I suspect this is speculation.https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/754767/

Scratch 4.0?
I looked at a video that said how to create a forum but I think they are using scratch 3.0 because there is no blue button beside the forums

Scratch 4.0?
It's not 4.0 yet. There was a color change in 2023 that changed the site colors from blue to purple. Replace any mention of “blue” with “purple” and you'll be fine- the interface hasn't changed, just the colors.

Scratch 4.0?
If I were to predict when 4.0 might get announced then it could be in 2026 or 2027. Probably not 2025 because Scratch Team is not done updating the 2.0 pages into the 3.0 versions! Therefore, 2026-2027 would be the most likely time window if not then later!

Scratch 4.0?
I would say no sooner than 2030 (and probably later). Two years really isn't a whole lot of time when it comes to developing an entire new version of Scratch. If I were to predict when 4.0 might get announced then it could be in 2026 or 2027. Probably not 2025 because Scratch Team is not done updating the 2.0 pages into the 3.0 versions! Therefore, 2026-2027 would be the most likely time window if not then later!
That is, of course, if it's coming at all in the future, but I think there will be a Scratch 4.0 eventually. It's just not going to happen this year or next.

Scratch 4.0?
True. That said, maybe they'll be adding it in the future for 3.0 when it's fully finished! If they add dark mode, they probably wouldn't wait for a full major version

I think that someone PR'd this on GitHub to my knowledge, but not much has started on it, yet. Adding dark mode wouldn't be that hard to do. Just swapping a CSS stylesheets for another CSS stylesheets (if you have no idea what CSS is, it stands for Cascading Style Sheets, and is used to style websites).
