You have no idea what RAM is. ::motion
The block plugin simply takes text in scratchblocks tags and renders them as block images. ::looks
It has literally nothing to do with memory; an empty project probably takes up more memory... ::motion
...than a forum post using scratchblocks. ::motion

The only thing this suggestion would change is to update the appearance of blocks. ::operators

It wouldn't. Rendering blocks with a different visual design doesn't affect RAM usage or lag.

No. 3.0 Scratchblocks don't waste RAM.

The mobile forums don't even have scratchblocks in the first place

Mobile forums suck, don't use them. they don't fix anything and it makes the text box smaller.
Anyeays support bc i don't want 2.0 blocks in 4.0.

That's because these are from a time when phones couldn't really render anything. Normal forums work perfectly fine on mobile now.

Support for all the reasons above.

Reason? You can't just say “ugly” and leave.

Maybe like only 2% of people use old phones. There are more Internet Explorer users than that, and you can't use Scratch on IE.

I think this sums up the rest of my argument quite nicely.

This makes no sense, it's literally just replacing this image with that image, they would take up 1MB of RAM at most, and modern computers have multiple gigabytes of RAM. I don't even know how you're under the implication that it would lag and use more RAM.

Support! Luckily I have an extension that lets me do this, posting a mockup soon.
EDIT: Here is StillTalksInBlocks's above post with 3.0 scratchblocks

(sorry that it has darkmode and green color)

Support because they're making Scratch 3.0 and this may be confusing to new Scratchers

StillTalksInBlocks

Full support. It'll make the forums look a little less 2.0. Wiki already has 3.0 blocks anyways. ::motion cap

No support, I don't like the style of the 3.0 blocks, They are too tall. The text is too small, too. This is more personal opinion, though.

Support, because I kinda get confused between events and control sometimes because of the colors lol

kat-coder

when green flag clicked
set [version] to [3.0]

Yeah when I first saw scratch it was 3.0 and it's a lil confusing

This isn't about personal preference. This is about not confusing users.
And, 2.0 blocks will probably still be available.

set [page v] to [front]
