Why can't you heart? It's a great feature and it helps for multiple reasons.

That means we're not going to delete posts because of one questionable word.

What is bad, sorry, evil, about it?

For one thing, it encourages news silos, meaning that you only see articles that support what you already believe in.

For another, people who don't know any better display the Facebook like button on their web sites, and if you visit that site, Facebook collects that information about you even if you don't click the button. So they build a dossier about the interests of everyone in the world. Their purpose for collecting the information is to show you targeted advertising, but once the dossier is there, it's used for all kinds of nefarious political purposes.

lack of bright and friendly colors

i have the perfect way to get bright colors and modern look:
1.go to the settings icon on the editor
2.click "flat design"
it makes everything in the project look more decent and modern

it also saves in your next session, it still does flat design in the regular site (not editor)!

@xheatwave

Scratch 3.0's blocks look so much better than 1.4.

and this looks a little like 3.0 blocks

Tried that, looks the same. Only difference is light mode.

why was this flagged?

@xheatwave

the lack of bright and friendly colors sorta gives me a sad and gloomy feeling

so... you think more about colors than programming? The reason (I think) for no bright and friendly colors is to make it more pleasing to the eyes, and allow the user to think better.

[xheatwave]

its vice versa for me

[ego-lay_atman-bay]

ok.

[programmer_user]

Because it's off-topic.

that's why I absolutely hate light mode.

[ego-lay_atman-bay]

go to snap.berkeley.edu/profile then I think the rest is self explanatory. I'm not sure if it'll delete your forum account.
