A Community section on profiles (Like YouTube!)

(It would probably work just like the forums work, But it's dedicated to profiles)

Do you ever have a time you want to tell your followers about an announcement easily?
No more having to make projects that would be up for a limited amount of time.

With a new section on your profile, You can share announcements with your followers easily!
You can also decide if you want people commenting on your posts.
You can also enable notifications if you want to know when a user you follow posts.
Along with posting pictures related to Scratch, Like the progress of a project you're working on you want to share.
New Scratcher profiles do not have a Community tab.
The Community tab is visible to all users (so no PMs!).

I honestly think it seems like a good idea.

Here's what it would probably look like:

You mean like a profile comment or a What I'm Working On?

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.

I was a Scratch Team member from May 10th 2019 to October 29th 2021.

Don't think it's Profile Comment

Like something based off of YouTube, Where you can tell your followers about something. It looks like something out of the forums.

I didn't really bother making a mockup because if this were to be a duplicate or something else, I would've wasted time.

Wow, first reply from Za-Chary. That's not something you see every day

I support this idea. It would make following users more meaningful. Currently the follow system is really broken IMO, and I think it would be nice to add this once other problems with it get ironed out (like, I don't want to see every single time someone I'm following loves or favorites a project, I want to see more than five activities at a time, and I want to get a harder-to-miss notification when someone I'm following uploads a new project).

Finished the Mockup, Hope I didn't waste my time on it.

Support. I would be good to have a live feed from the user.

Nothing here.

Support!
AM and WIWO is just 200 chars? ru kidding me?,
Project is a clutter,
And this like much better than AM, WIWO and Projects combined!

And I suppose you can use BBCode and upload images like the forum would do?

No support, Just make a studio, and where would this go?

You can't use bbcode, upload images and other things that you can only do in a forum so forum ≠ studio

total support. I don't like my announcements getting drained away by comments

Support! There's no sure fire for people to alert fer followers

Some people who follow a lot of people can't be bothered with invites. With a Community section, people like these could just skim through all the messages and get an idea of what's going on. This would also help popular game developers with updating everyone, which would give people a reason to follow people.

And people will view these?

It'd be easier to open up this one spot and scroll through everything than going through every invite.

Semi-Support. You can work around this by making a studio and inviting all you followers. But this is tedious if you have over 3 pages of followers, and some people don't like being invited without permission. It would be cool to have this, kind of like Halo Waypoint with how it shares updates. (You can use that quote if you want)
