also check out my cool star wars website (made with sveltekit): https://starwars-sveltekit.vercel.app/

me when I have 437,000 lines of open source code

i changed the font of the website!

it should still match the “codey”/monospace style, but it’s now a little more sans-serify.

let me know what you think.

Sveltekit is the real web3

I feel this way about sveltekit

i would like to make it clear that asking to be verified is a great way to not get verified

Many people (including myself) misunderstood this to make it so you can’t see shared projects without being logged in

Also no one really knows anything as this is a draft pr and the st said they don’t want to share more info about it. So that is just an educated guess

@magentasupernova @micahlt

A post on discord provided some more clarity for the shared projects needing a token thing:

Apparently the token will be required for all projects, but in the case of shared projects, a special token just for that project will be available publicly. So everything should continue to work the same (embeds, viewing when not logged in, turbowarp for shared projects)

Unshared projects will require the account token

So, basically all this does is make it impossible to view unshared projects without being on the right account and adding in an extra hoop to jump through to see shared projects

Thanks @magentasupernova for being my 60th follower!!

A couple of thoughts about the project token stuff:

  1. who in the world thinks it’s a good idea to require a token for shared, public scratch projects?!? it’s just unnecessary work!

  2. what about project embedding? what will happen to that? I doubt the scratch team wants to remove embedding since it promotes coding and sharing your projects

  3. What if you’re not logged in and want to use a scratch project? Will you have to be logged in or else not be able to load any projects?

  4. The big fear I have is this will turn into something like when the studios were transferred, a massive public outrage aimed at the scratch team. We’re talking 9 pages of forum topics just complaining about the studios. This is even worse than the studios though because it’s not just a design change, it actually removes functionality of being able to view and edit projects on turbowarp, which is much faster in some cases than normal scratch. So I fear people are going to complain A LOT. They are going to be outraged.

@non-biased-news @polaris @daily_news (this is kinda news lol) scratch team confirms they will pass token for all types of projects, both shared and unshared. rip turbowarp

Sometimes i talk to myself for no reason

Open source is great because you get people to do your coding for you
