why wont the st stop making terrible color changes
I don't think it helps the colorblind
There's even a topic about the remix button https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/663403/ JUST THE REMIX BUTTON IS A WHOLE TOPIC

ST wants people with vision problems to enjoy scratch. Also can you get used to it instead of making a fuss about it?
I also kinda don't like it but I'm calm/

Then be patient and wait for like a month or 2 and then you will enjoy scratch. Also when a tiny update happens it's not the end of the world.Sorry, but I want to protect my eyes. ST wants people with vision problems to enjoy scratch. Also can you get used to it instead of making a fuss about it?

For those too lazy to click the link in the previous post, this is the quote Crispydogs101 is referring to.
While were open to suggestions on color changes, this is one of the things where putting down an accessibility change on the mere basis of finding it ugly can come across as ableist. It's not like we've picked random colors without doing research on the subject for a couple of years. I think any valid criticism on the color change should come from a place where accessibility is being kept in mind (i.e., show scientific proof of another color change being better for people with visual problems).
Well - any time we change anything, we get suggestions like this to make it an option. More options makes for more complexity and a product that is harder to learn and harder to maintain. So I think it's best to try and live with the change for a while and see if it really is so bothersome.
