Upd8: A friend has informed me scratch doesn't take art. But I'm still not into the whole ai debacle. I'm not coming back, but i'm not exactly gone. I might post a bit, or use this site to create art outside of posts, but I don't want to set anything in stone yet. I'm not doing this. I love scratch and all the people I've met on here, but I'm not giving up my art for it. There's much more educated and detailed takes on this than mine, so if you want some, they're down in the Notes and Credits.The short answer is Scratch is now scraping your art, projects, games, EVEN COMMENTS and selling that data to big AI companies like OpenAI. I don't support AI, even if I've made projects in the past with it. It's been absolutely wonderful to know and entertain you all, but this isn't something I'm willing to just ignore. So in case I don't see you, goodnight, good morning or good afternoon. Your former jester has just taken their final bow.
