Can you please explain that to us? All you just said was “plz”, and it's not constructive.

Yeah, but what about comic sans?

I think it would be more useful to be able to use fonts from Google Fonts.

Support, clearly, there's nothing wrong with Comic Sans or more fonts.

(I'm serious.)

You can use an external vector editor like Inkscape to use whatever fonts you want. Just make sure to use the “convert text to path” option so Scratch can import it.

Maybe an option to upload font files (or the fonts from Google Fonts like Sigton said) for use in the editor?

Comic sans is a terrible font to use in general, but I guess in some places it would be acceptable. Support.

Alright so I have some mixed feelings about this

So this font is hated by tons of people because it is overused. It's more overused than Apple products (exaggeration) and the font just doesn't look good on today's Internet. Whenever we see a font like that, it's like we go back to the early days of the Internet.

The purpose of this font was intended for children though. So this would be a good idea since it is intended for children but it also might be hated by a part of the community because it looks terrible.

it would only be good for comics and i don't think there are that many comics on scratch plus lots of people don't like it so if this was added the st could receive some form of backlash

Just because a font has “comic” in the name doesn't mean it is only good for comics.

Also, even though the ST might get backlash for Comic Sans, they have to understand that they aren't being forced to use it.

EDIT: Oof I should have proofread what I wrote first.

When I said “they have to understand that they aren't being forced to use it,” I was referring to the people that would give ST backlash, not the ST themselves.

Ah yes, the meme font.
I don't know if this could be added because of licensing and copyright.

Technically you could import some Comic Sans text as an svg using Google Drawings. In won't be built in, though.
