Sorry if this is not the right place to post, because I couldn’t find another better “meta”-topic about the forum itself. If in the wrong place, please just move it to the right place, or something.

Since it is pretty hard to separate games from extensions in the “Show & Tell” category and searches, we are unable ourselves to tag our post with the available tags(at least I haven’t figured out how to do this as explained above) and setting tags are sometimes forgotten by the moderators(e.g. Stat extension), might I suggest and maybe the @makecode team consider whether it could be a good idea to create a separate extensions category?
