Remove the Email Confirmation

I find this very annoying, even though it's something simple if you have a Google, Apple, or Microsoft account like in this suggestion. But, let's have empathy for people who use Family Link or have a student account. My 8-year-old autistic cousin who lives in Itatiba-SP has been using Scratch on the SCRnoScratch account since 2022. Follow him there and his email is not confirmed because his account is a student account and the Scratch Team cannot send him emails. What's worse, his school is a Municipal and Public Elementary School, and it hardly gives Scratch activities because he is in the 4th grade and his teacher thinks he is too young for Scratch activities that can be complicated and difficult for him, even though he has difficulty writing the letters “E” and “F” and reading very small texts, etc. He uses ScratchJr at school, which he likes more because he makes his animations there and even has a YouTube channel. To solve this problem, it's simple: REMOVE the email confirmation. You just need to send your email and that's it. You don't need to do anything else. You can now use Scratch without any problems.

E-mail confirmation is very important for keeping bots and spam out of Scratch.

This suggestion has already been rejected, sorry.

Thanks for the link! Since this is already rejected, I will close the topic to highlight the answer and prevent future responses.
