I know that browser extensions can't be mentioned on scratch, but can I use browser extensions that modify and/or change something in scratch website/editor? Is it against 4.4 Terms of Use?

You can use extensions, but just can't name them.

OP is asking if they can share projects that used extensions to make them.

No, they're asking if they can use browser extensions that modify and/or change something in the Scratch website/editor.

I thought the OP was asking whether they could use them? Let's wait for them to specify what they meant.

… So the OP is asking if they can share projects that used extensions to make them. Because if you change something in the editor/website, you are still using the extension to make something. Like in the editor if an extension changed it you would be using the extension to make the project.

They didn't say anything about sharing projects. They're asking if using Scratch browser extensions is allowed.

Yeah.

And they also mentioned the editor. So it has sharing projects and other things.

You can use browser extensions (at your own risk), only mentioning them is not allowed. It might not break ToU 4.4? as you're still using the website editor (it just so happens that code runs on it to modify it), and that part of the ToU isn't really enforced anyways. Though the next sentence in it says “You may not upload any projects that were created, by you or by anyone else, with a modified version of the Scratch editor.”, which would mean any modified versions are not allowed, so IDK.

It is confusing because the text sounds like it says you can only use the 1.x source code or the website editor, meaning using 2.0 or using the 3.0 offline editor would not be allowed though.
