Make 2.0 Pages 3.0
As most of you know, some pages on scratch have the header in 2.0 style. I think it shouldn't be like that, it was pretty confusing when 3.0 came out.Now studio update is already released!
Not just that- i noticed that messages work different. In 3.0 styled, they're ‘marked as read’ after a certain amout of time after being checked, in 2.0 messages are ‘marked as read’ immediatly after the message page is open.
I remember there was a topic about this too, but it got deleted due to being a userstyle. I don't think this is a userstyle because it's literally just some mockups made with inspect. (and some SVE)
1. Profile
This is my mockup for profile: It's the same but the header is 3.0.
2. Studios
This is my mockup for studios. You can see that the ‘Add Projects’ is a bit different. I changed ‘Curators’ to ‘Contributors’ because in that tab there are managers too, not just curators
3. My Stuff
I always found My Stuff a bit- confusionary. Projects are small. So here's my mockup for it. You can see it has the current catogories. I wanted to point out this though: “project4” is unshared, while the other projects are shared. If a project is shared it shows “Unshare”, else “Delete”
4. Discuss Home
Inspired by the deleted one, it has a different color than the main site, as the forums AREN'T the main site.
5. Topics
The topic now has the normal 3.0 header, and ‘Follow Discussion’ is now ‘Follow Topic’. I think it's better because literally everywhere they're called ‘topics’.
6. Account Settings
The account settings. Note how the username is grayed out (meaning that it's unchangeable) and the “I want to delete my account” is red (kinda like in GitHub). I renamed ‘Account’ to ‘Profile’ because that section is more like ‘Profile settings’
Tell me what you think down below! (and remember to be constructive)

Support. It looks a bit weird to see 2.0 pages in Scratch 3.0!

Make 2.0 Pages 3.0
If this got implemented, there are a lot of users who use Scratch on cell phones that would be enraged. 3.0 pages were, ironically, designed for mobile use, while 2.0 pages weren't. However, they didn't design the website very well for this. I've seen users say several times that the 2.0 pages are the mobile-friendly ones, when it's supposed to be the other way around. If I resize my window to about the size of a small tablet, the home page looks like this:

As you can see, several items in the header have been removed, most notably the search bar. Many users dislike this format because of this, with some calling it “completely unusable.” If scratch-www is going to be made universal, this design should be reformed to keep cell phone users happy. The mobile page designs should look more like this:

Works just like it did before, but the search bar has been brought back and the create, explore, ideas, about, mail, and my stuff buttons have been moved to the green flag dropdown. That way, you're not removing page functionality from mobile users, you're simply rearranging the items so users don't have to scroll sideways.

Make 2.0 Pages 3.0
Support,It was THE most popular version
It would be nice to if the pages were updated, 2.0 was, apparently, one of the most popular versions, so yay, I get why some haven't been updated.

are you suggesting they make the old pages look like new pages, or they make the old pages into new pages?Migration is easy. This year we are supposed to get 4.0. Who knows? Maybe we are gonna A NEW STYLE?
they are in completely different systems, and we are currently in an odd time where it's the migration.
i liked the idea where old pages should be styled to look like new pages while we wait for them to actually be migrated. i can't find the link though.

The 6 year gap between versions was a coincidence, and I honestly don't think we're gonna get 4.0 this year, considering Scratch hasn't changed all of the pages from scratchr2 to scratch-www.are you suggesting they make the old pages look like new pages, or they make the old pages into new pages?Migration is easy.
