So I have an idea so basically on the scratch home page you add a new section called “Random Projects” so what it does is it pick 5 random project with under a 100 views and displays them so unnoticed scratchers can get noticed:):)

There's a problem: What if it shows an inappropriate project?

Then, the ST will have to refresh a lot of times just to see the inappropriate project.

To elaborate, let's say Person A ends up using this feature, and gets a project named… something.

A clicks on the project and gets Rickrolled. Harmless, right? Except, then it suddenly switches into something very harmful. The user gets too scared to report and his first instinct is to go back to the home page.

Now, Person B who is a member of the ST tries to use this feature to report any inappropriate project.

…any minute now…

Eventually, the ST gives up and calls it a day.

But only 5 projects will be shown each day and btw normally u wouldn't get so scared that u dont report

7.11 “Recently Shared Projects” row on the front page
This proposed row on the front page would display projects that were most recently shared by Scratchers, in an attempt to help unnoticed Scratchers get more views. Such a feature existed in Scratch 1.4 and Scratch 2.0. It was removed for several reasons: the community did not find these projects interesting, the row would sometimes show inappropriate projects, and these new projects would often get disrespectful comments from other users.

A button or link which allows you to view a random project is also rejected for similar reasons.
