The Questions About Scratch Directory 8.0

The OP's account is deleted, so idk maybe someone should take over this again. Probably not me, since I'm still not planning on being really active here.

I have no idea how taking over a sticky works if the OP's account is deleted (which we shouldn't gossip about) since we can't really ask permission from the OP to take over. Maybe ask a moderator?

To my knowledge that's generally the procedure if the sticky needs to have someone maintaining it and the owner is inactive, deleted or banned.

Section 1: Temporary Questions
This section is for currently relevant questions but may become significantly less relevant. As a result, these questions are temporary and may come and go.

Q: How do I download the 2.0 offline editor?
A: To download the 2.0 editor, you can use this old abandoned page that still shows the links to download Scratch 2.0 or the Wayback machine to download it.
Keywords: scratch 2.0, download, offline editor, 2.0 editor

Q: Has Scratch been updated?
A: Yes, a confirmation now pops up when you try to delete a sprite, Scratch blocks in the forums now use the 3.0 format, and minors under 16 years old need parental permission before creating an account. There is also a new “debug” feature in the editor.

This sticky contains a log of the recent updates.
Keywords: update, 3.0, blocks, delete sprite, parental permission

Q: When will 4.0 come out?
A: According to a page explaining the the site that explains Scratch's plans to people interested in working for Scratch as a senior back-end engineer, interested in a development of Scratch 4.0 will begin to be prioritized in 2025. However, no actual release date was given. Note that this wasn't an official announcement. Things may be subject to change, and 4.0 may not happen for a while (or ever).

As of this post, the page that explained that 4.0 will be prioritized soon is not allowed to be linked on Scratch due to it sharing a contact form. However, it is an official Scratch Foundation website.
Keywords: scratch 4.0, update

Can you add “Can you backpack membership sprites?” to the list? The answer to the question is yes, you can backpack those sprites because they are exclusive early access content, you just need to find a project that uses the sprites. https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/842514/

Yeah it was, I don’t know what happened, it was deleted for a few weeks but I asked why and it was restored.

Youre more likely to get a better answer in a new forum thread than replying to an existing one
If you dont get any answers, maybe make a new post after a while?

The Questions About Scratch Directory 8.0

By the way, can you add stuff about browser and OS detection (I hate having to explain it every single time actually LOL and I'd like sth to copy and paste)

medians wrote:

Yeah, there is a way to detect Windows 11 vs 10, but it doesn't work properly on older OSes and those will still be detected as either Windows 10 or 11, and it doesn't work in all browsers. I felt like my suggestion was different, though I'm trying to suggest something to reduce confusion.
I've seen similar to the following:
*People wondering why it says macOS 10.15.x when they're on a different version
*People wondering why it says WIndows NT 10.0, saying stuff like “but I'm on Windows 11, not 10” or “You're still on Windows NT?” (thinking that Windows NT was last used for NT 4.0 or sth like that since it was the last to actually have NT outside of internal name)
*People wondering why Windows 7/8/8.1 users are on Chrome 109.0.0.0 because the user agent says NT 10.0 for them
*People not realizing that “Request Desktop Site” on iOS/iPadOS makes the OS appear as MacOS
*People wondering why their Chromium based browser shows up as Chrome (also, I feel like it should be updated to detect Edge because I feel like I've heard people state that the user agent says Edge at the end)

I also saw someone reporting this for Edge (at least, that's what it seemed like). It just simply uses the slider from your browser (which I feel like could be useful to mention if someone swapped browsers and noticed this)
Edge is retextured chrome, so yeah.
Yeah, though many people don't seem to realize this or don't realize that it's also Chromium based on Scratch. I don't even know how many times I've seen people confused about Chromium based browsers (including Edge) saying Chrome on Scratch LOL
Edit: actually maybe I'll ask if I can make a BaG sticky
