Merge the two "my stuff" buttons.


so recently I talked with @fancyfoxy about the fact that for no reason, there are TWO SEPARATE “my stuff” buttons on the main menu.
I think this double button is unnecessary, and you only need to have just one.
please suggest which one of them should be removed
supporters: 6
drop down:3 sidebar:3 whichever:0
this time, I will not create a giant studio. This is a smaller problem than bringing back the discuss tab.
keep scratching! @yzyzyz

Support! I think we should just get rid of the My Stuff button in the drop-down menu, because the extra click.

Aha, you made it! So, yeah, like I said on the other topic, I would support this, and personally I would remove the one on the bar, not in the drop down menu
EDIT: my reasoning is just that it slightly shortens the bar, it's more clear what it does (it actually says it, instead of being a symbol) and I'm personally accustomed to using the drop down one

My alt account, where I upload nothing (much like my main account)
I play video games and sometimes do other things. I don't really make anything on Scratch anymore, but I'm relatively active on the Undertale and Deltarune forums.
Click this. Or don't.

What's the point of removing the one in the dropdown?

No support, I think that the button should stay there, and it's not causing any problems in the dropdown.

I used to be active on the forums, but I have mostly moved past Scratch. I still do check my Scratch messages, so if you'd like to talk to me, just leave a comment on my profile. My main project on Scratch was Cookie Clicker, but my newest project is Snake Snake, a game based off of Snake, but with two snakes, and you can play either singleplayer or multiplayer.

There is no need for both. I would remove the one at the top. It would add more space.



Witty signature.

But is the repitition really necessary? I mean, Scratch removed the discuss button, which made many angry(though not me), but they have two of the same button.

It may not be necessary, but a common forum motto states, “If it ain't broke, don't fix it.”

I think it's there so New Scratchers can be more likely to find it…

I don't know though. It doesn't bother me, why, and why not?

confusion?
Why would me going to the exact same place using almost the exact same buttons cause confusion? Could you elaborate?

That really shouldn't be a long term focus of Scratch.

Support! I occasionally will check on my profile and then see the other My Stuff button and think, Why does that need to be there? I think that the drop-down one should be removed. Although, this is just a annoying little problem. If Scratch kept it, it wouldn't be so bad. I do see the wisdom in taking it away also.

I don't see much of a reason for removing it either, and I'm used to seeing it in the dropdown menu (even though I never click it).. so it might bother a few users.. so.. I don't have much support either.
