Remix Tree Remake

BEFORE COMMENTING THAT THE REMIX TREE STILL EXISTS, READ FURTHER:
The remix tree was the original way of Displaying remixes before scratch 3.0, While the remix tree still can be accessed by adding “Remixtree” To the project URL, I think it should be improved.

1. Bring back a button link
The remix tree was very useful for many reasons, seeing which remixes were more popular, adding onto chains Ect. I think that the remix tree should be more accessible to everyone, a button would make viewing it a lot more accessible.

2. Better social visuals
Currently, the most popular remixes on a remix tree will have several hearts around the project icon (Either Hearts or number or remixes, I'm not quite sure as of writing this). First, Most popular remixes should be prioritized, any projects with a notable amount of hearts or remixes should be put front and centre. When hovering your mouse over them, you should be able to view the amount of likes favourites and remixes.

3. Make the tree bigger, allowing for more projects to be viewed at once
Right now, the tree is just a thin stick that branches out, I think you should make the base of the tree thicker, so that more branches can well, “branch out” of the tree, This makes clicking hundreds of Folders. You could also make it look more like a ‘Tree’, With a thicker wood base and actual branches that thin the deeper the remixes go. However, it's just a cosmetic idea and isn't exactly necessary

If you have any additional Ideas or comments please let me know.

Hovering over a project or clicking it(for touch) does show things like favs and views.

Oh.

Well a number or remixes would still work, since for now it only shows likes and favourites

I agree with the 3rd one. Some remix trees can be soooooo big, that could even crash someone's browser.
