A disability of what? Scratch stayed blue all the way from 2.0 and randomly changed it in 2023, but why?

I bet you the topic creator either didn't want to have to disable extensions (that's likely where this comes from), or the topic creator took the screenshot before the color was changed lol

It was meant for vision difficulties and accessibility. However, some people stated that it had the opposite effect (colorblind people and photophobia [unfortunately, I was one of these people :/]), while others stated that it worked fine (photophobia)

Accessibility? No offense, but you don't need it. Blue looked prettier, and since you said the effect was opposite or fine, that makes the update not necessary since it doesn't bring anything good.

Here's a clarification of what I'm talking about: some people said they had troubles with the blue and thought the purple was better (some people said they couldn't really look at the blue without headaches, while others had troubles with the purple (for example, I actually threw up, not exaggerating at all, and it gave me headaches) and thought the blue was better in this situation
The problem is that the purple links look too similar to the text if you have achromatopsia or tritanopia, so colorblind people had issues with it, which was the opposite of what was intended.
Anyways, back to the topic

what I'm asking is is this a good 3.0 page (not talking about the color, so ignore it)

Then just make it an option to switch between the 2! Is it THAT hard? XD

Yeah it looks good imo.

I know, but he was asking about it
Anyway, I feel like it would fit better in a suggestion about changing the pages to scratch-www

I think mines look better.

Looks good to me.
I reported this to get it moved to Suggestions since it's a better place.

The U.S. did a law in 2023 about it I'm pretty sure so they could've got sued.

Yeah but can't you just make a “Themes” section in account settings so that you can choose between blue and purple?
