Clickable links to other websites

Whenever I post a link that is not on Scratch in a project or comment, it isn't clickable. Therefore, you would have to copy-paste it to go to it. This suggestion would help solve that problem. For example, YouTube links and such. What do you think?

Can you just copy the link?

I believe this was intentional. I have no idea why we should make all links able to be clicked. I personally think that the short hassle is meant to dissuade using links to other sites that aren't trusted. To be honest, not having clickable links to other sites isn't actually a problem.

Yes, but it's annoying and makes no sense.

If your asking why scratch only makes links clickable when its under the scratch.mit.edu domain (like in comments and projects) it's because that's the main part of the website and they don't want people sharing inappropriate videos and stuff, but the forums are a place that not many scratchers know about, so links are allowed
