Bring back the original CodePen @codepen.
This 2.0 update should not be forced on us.
Way too much friction and features we didn't ask for.
One of my biggest gripes with 2.0 is that it was not at all intuitive to add external libraries like GSAP. I have read the faqnow (thx). Frankly, having to copy and paste cdn urls seems like a step backwards, especially if you need GSAP, ScrollTrigger, ScrollSmoother and others in a new project.

One of the absolute best features of 2.0 is you don't have to think about adding external libraries, just
import gsap from 'gsap';
...and we do the rest!
This one's a bit excessive of an example, but here's a complete starter template for GSAP: codepen.io/editor/team/CodeP…
Try these two settings in 2.0 if you like that Classic feel:
1. Enable Minimal UI
2. Set a Classic template as your default

After that, the UI is nearly identical but you get all the new features!
