You know how this is a thing?

As you can see, it contains the 2 least used links. It also omits the most commonly used links.

This is a better header because it helps the user more. They can easily create and explore Scratch projects. It serves more purpose to the user.

I'm pretty sure Scratchers on a phone can't create projects…
Maybe just Explore and About?

You can create projects, it's just not good in portrait mode.

You can but from what I remember, it's awful LOL. You're meant to use Scratch on tablets or computers, just not phones, but on tablet/phone, I remember being really annoyed because I could not resize lists (I managed to do it but it was way too difficult) or use browser extensions (and this started before Safari extensions were even added, plus I can't get them anyway since I'm still on iOS 14), so I didn't even bother with mobile. And if you're on a phone, on 3.0 pages it cuts links and buttons, like the “Studios” button on project pages.

The Scratch Team does not intend for users to create projects with Scratch using a phone in the first place.

Scratch isn’t designed for phones, it’s meant for computers. Plus a good amount of scratch users use computers instead of phones so I don’t really see why this should be added. Also, people don’t really like making projects on phones as only a quarter of the editor can be visible at a time and it’s a nightmare to have to constantly swipe up and down to navigate across the editor, so most people give up on using scratch on mobile, meaning this probably wouldn’t benefit people that much.

I think the more standard solution for mobile devices is to move all of the navigation links into a sidebar
