in case you missed it

a new position on the scratch foundation’s website went up recently, and the job description confirms that scratch 4.0 is in development. says it’ll feature a “re-imagined online community and creative ai”… whatever that means

no word of a release date, but that’s understandable. i’m actually kind of excited for this, i feel like scratch’s online community hasn’t been working super well recently so hopefully this’ll fix some of those issues. as for the ai thing… please no. so many things can go wrong with that…

Ignore the AI thing, the fact that Scratch 4 is in development is already weird by itself

I’ve been in the assertion that Scratch 4 isn’t releasing for so long that when the Team wrote that the time is happening, it feels… contradictory.

Considering they’re just now publishing the job opening I don’t think it’s going to release anytime soon, like multiple years.
