should we add download project again? and it would be great to add a collaboration botton in studios

I heard back in the day in early years of scratch there was a download project system and it got removed why won't we re-add the feature? Most projects are way to laggy for mobile especially big animations like incognito oranges animations are laggy for most mobile players etc. and it would be cool to add a collaboration botton in studios where people colab usually it would send a message that says: hey! Someone wants to collaborate with you in ______ studio that would be cool and it would have stuff where you can make only certain people can collaborate with you to not cause to much messages or they could make that everyone can't collaborate with them for now. (Thanks for reading all of this I hope you gained a braincell of reading ts)

2.1 Adding users to work on projects
Having multiple Scratchers work on the same project would be difficult to moderate not only due to technological limitations but also because it could lead to private messaging; for more information, see #7.1 on this list. This suggestion includes live editing (similar to Google Docs) and other forms of private collaboration. If you would like to work on a project with another Scratcher, you can remix each others' projects.

Ohh okay but it would be cool if they puted a limitation on how much people you can colab with also scratch uses a.i to moderate so I think they have enough a.i to moderate

of course not all of them are mods but still—they have a pretty big team.

That's still at least 90M users and the staff is only 32 at best some moderators can moderate 1 thousand people

a more realistic number would be 40m users

Also (and this is another big reason why private projects with a few people aren't allowed), the ST relies a lot on community reports to help with moderation. (I don't remember where this came from, but I feel like I read it on the wiki somewhere)

Still 40M is a lot considering if they are very active and what I mean by lives is like they could have children side Hobby's etc

This topic is going off the rails.

Could you please elaborate on this “download project” feature? It sounds like Saving and Loading your project.

Oh, and, you are right, the ST is a small group of people moderating a huge site. While they do rely on bots, they do NOT rely on AI. Those are two different, but very similar.

Alr but yea the download project feature would be if your lagging or if it's more fps etc than normal scratch can handle like the BBC computer 60+ games that @rokcoder made you'd have to play on turbo warp even though he said some member fixed it for him it would help scratchers create bigger projects without needing an extension of scratch
