> Mixing older users with Roblox’s traditional crowd poses other safety risks, such as the possibility that young children are exposed to predators or recruited by extremist groups The article makes it sound like Roblox hadn't always been open for anybody to join and potentially cause harm, which makes me thing that whoever wrote it probably didn't spend much time on actual research. Setting that aside, from what I've seen of the roblox community, it seems to be a bit too detached from the rest of the development world, so while it can be a good starting point for young people to start learning about programming, there isn't much outside know-how in the community to show people how to advance their skills based on decades of trial and error; instead, they are left to develop bad practices that could make it harder later on if they decide they want to take programming beyond just roblox.
