Okay, but how do you make sure it’s cats and not lions or other cat-like animals? Also how do you make sure the projects are appropriate?

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. If you are interested in seeing recently shared projects, there is a “Recent” section of the Explore page; see this page.

A button or link which allows you to view a random project is also rejected for similar reasons.
(see bolded; aka someone could just put a cat in the project and put something else inappropriate)

this could work if it was like PPTBF but moderation issues need to be taken into account.

Perhaps instead of them being random, a studio (similar to the design studio) can be made with only approved projects by curators.

heres the grand plan:
march 15-31: make a studio similar to SDS7salad3salad where people can add projects of cats8to16 and similar animals1THEKINGBOB3
april 1: add a row on the homepage called “featured cats”8to16 and randomlycake__5, 8to16 select projects from that studio to show on that row.

the small text is the origin of each idea

To avoid moderation issues, why couldn't you just rename the SDS and/or Featured Projects rows to “Featured Cats”, and have a joke SDS (like last year), or just feature projects with cats in them?

The SDS idea sounds cool! Maybe just replace the SDS row with projects for an added featured studio that's just about cats, so there's already existing projects.
