Search is broken. Nothing up there!

We cant do any thing the ST fixes this unexpected bug that seemed to appear out of nowhere.

when green flag clicked
forever
if <bug fixes> then 
broadcast [ happiness]
:)
 
else
repeat until <[bug] = [fixed]>
add [1 second of waiting] to [list v]
end

end
end

Scratch's search engine is currently broken, and all we can do is wait for it to be fixed.
Unfortunately, no one knows when this will be fixed or how to fix it.
This affects everyone on Scratch, so the Scratch Team is aware of the situation.

For now, you can type "site:scratch.mit.edu (search query)" into a search engine like Google to work around this bug.
You should also discuss the bug here: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/790866/

This also affects the Explore page, since that's internally based on Scratch's search engine.

This is not funny
So I am guessing Scratch defunctioned the search bar because they thought it was a problem for getting 4.0

when green flag clicked
while developing (4.0)
if <[ahh search bar] = [existing?]> then
scratch 4.0 will (break)

end

end

It seems the bug is in fact back. (It also happened when the spammers were supposedly going to raid a bunch of profiles). The issue is something to do with how not all the cloud data is functioning properly, but in the meantime, just keep waiting another second (as you already are, you say

)

I don't think Scratch's search engine is related to or tied to Scratch's cloud variable system, they just happen to both be broken at the same time.
Unfortunately, as you said, we just have to keep waiting for them to be fixed

So its like, back then when this never happened, I used to go to my favorite studio every day.
THistime, when I searched it up, Nothing was appearing and so was “Nothing Found”

when green flag clicked
forever
if <[<my (favorite) studio>] = [is not showing up]> then
end life
end
end

when green flag clicked
Operate [Fix search bar v] :: control
and when search bar is fixed, do following below:
scratch 4.0
scratchGPT
ruining children's creativity thanks to AI
if <all that is done?> then
forget about scratch [true v]

end
