i feel like users should be able to make thier own extensions and share them to other scratches

for exsample if someone makes a pen text engine and shares it an an extension it would benefit the user of the pen text engine by the user being allowed to use the pen text engine on more than one sprite and it would make thier code tidyer

also people who make resources for other people to use it in thier projects such as for exsample pen text engines really like getting credit if there thing has been used so scratch could automaticly give credit to the extension creaters

That would be very confusing and possibly laggy for the Scratch servers.

how? sharing an extension would be like sharing a project but it contains blocks that can be used on projects.

sharing a project doesnt lag the scratch servers or confuse people
so why would share extention?

There is a way to create extensions, but I haven't had much luck with it so far. There was ScratchX, which made it easy to load custom extensions into Scratch, although you couldn't share projects made with them on the regular website, but it still uses Scratch 2.0.

Sharing an extension wouldn't be the same as sharing a project. That why I said it would confuse people and maybe(keyword being “maybe”) lag the Scratch servers.

extensions are different from normal blocks. Extensions are a list of blocks that cant be worked around in any way !

No support, Scratch extensions have to be manually approved by the Scratch Team for a reason. You're not even allowed to share working JS code on the forums, so making a way to share it and run it on the user's computer is a really bad idea.
