Blocks is overrated
Python is **ABSOLUTE TRASH** with the editor MakeCode provides (Please make it better MakeCoder)
JavaScript/TypeScript is so much better than blocks. Use it.

Infact, you TypeScript to make extensions, yeah?

Ok wait i’m not trying to say blocks are BETTER than the other languages, but they aren’t _overrated_, you know? They do their job great.
