Ive said it before and I’ll say it again

The word “from” here indicates something you are all overlooking

What this bans is actually

“Uploading a project from the inside of something that is not an offical editor made by scratch team, or is a modified version of the scratch editor”

It prevents you from uploading a project via any method that isn’t from the scratch website, such as api requests. The “exclusively” list shows the sections that you are allowed to upload a project in.

What this is banning is basically a third party editor mod that would have an “upload” button that would upload the project to the main site.
This is why despite being perfectly doable via api requests. Nothing actually does this.

You CAN make a project via turbowarp, export it, then import it into normal scratch to be uploaded. As you aren’t uploading the project FROM turbowarp, it’s being uploaded from scratch.

TLDR:
You are misinterpreting this. It bans uploading a project via any method that is not FROM the scratch website, NOT projects CREATED via a method apart from the scratch site

So these are banned?

• Scratch < 1.4.
  
• Any Scratch mod.
  
• Using browser extensions.
  
• Editing the JSON.
  
• Converters such as Tosh.
  
• 2.0/3.0 offline editors.
  

I'm not sure about browser extensions – it depends on what exactly makes the editor “modified”.

5.3 refers to scratch 1.4 though

The “with” isn’t being used as “using” it’s being used as “within”

Which doesn't change anything. The meaning is effectively the same- and I don't think that the ST would use the word like that (considering that they likely got a lawyer to write the ToU).

Bump.

It’s also confusing what moderators themselves say. Cheddargirl said that exporting svg files from a modified version of the Scratch editor like Turbowarp is fine because the svg file format is not unique to Scratch.

the more tos that goes away the less rules we have
