Unshared Studios

support for this one, if possible. I have a lot of unnamed studios that I don't have plans for, but do not want to delete, I just want to keep unnamed studios in case if I got an idea for them.

Support. When I first joined Scratch, I thought studios were to organize my unshared and shared projects, and was disappointed when I found out they were only for shared projects.

support. It'd be nice to not have a blank studio right on your profile when you're working on a new studio.

Like projects, be able to have a unshared studio, and you have to press share when done.
Also, you could put unshared projects in unshared studios.
And, you cannot invite curators.

I was thinking the same thing! Honestly I wish Scratch would just do it.

Literally. People were clicking on my studios while I was working on them and it was so annoying

Support!! Only problem is that in the “What I've Been Doing” people would be able to see that a scratcher added a project to the studio. If the studio or project is unshared, and the Scratcher who owns it wants it to be a surprise, then it might get ruined.

do unshared projects do that

Bump (was about to post a dupe of this suggestion)

I think this would especially be helpful while trying to organize studios - sometimes it can be annoying to leave a studio unfinished, especially if you have to leave partway. I also like the idea of being able to add unshared projects to studios (although I'm not sure how that would work - if you share the studio, would the unshared projects be shared as well?)

Even if you share a project, then unshare it, the title still shows up in your “What I've been Doing” and also shows up in your followers' What's Happening section.

Bump!

I feel like people aren't bringing this reason up enough. It would be nice for organizing unshared projects, as a person who has 340 of them.

Semi-support. It would be nice to set up a studio before sharing it to the public, but this might extend to this rejected suggestion in TOLORS:

Rejected Suggestions wrote:
4.1 Disable “See Inside” or private sharing
Some users want an option to prevent Scratchers from looking inside their project and using their artwork, scripts, or sounds. However, the core ideas of Scratch are "Imagine, Program, Share.“ By sharing a project on the Scratch website, you are allowing others to see the code and potentially remix or reuse the data inside, as long as they give credit. This includes allowing others to use the backpack to use your creations in their own projects. That being said, please use the Report button on any project that uses content from another Scratcher without giving credit to them. If you do not want other users to see inside your project, then do not share your project on the Scratch website.

Private sharing so that only certain users can view the project is also not going to be implemented. It is important for projects to be publicly shared for everyone to see so people can report them if they are inappropriate. Only allowing certain users to view projects could increase the chances of inappropriate projects being shared on the website. ”Unlisted projects," similar to a YouTube feature, will also not be implemented for the same reason; for more information, see this post. It could also be used for private messaging; for more information, see #7.1 on this list.

Not quite. It's only you who can see the studio, but all you can do is add shared projects, probably shouldn't allow comments (good point), and make changes to different features.
