There should be a button for telling your followers about a project you like.

If you really like a project that you want to show to other people, maybe put a link in your “About Me”, or favorite the project so it shows up on your profile page; it's that simple. Or, if it's a close friend who you know wouldn't mind, comment on their profile with a link, saying “Hey, I really like this project, I think that you'd like it too!”

Also, could you give us an in-depth description on how exactly this would work? Would it send your followers a message, saying to check out that certain project?

This would be instinct. Also, that would be how it worked

Isn't there already “Projects Loved By Scratchers I'm Following”? That's very similar.

No support. That would be annoying, and people would use it to advertise.

For example, a Scratcher has two accounts and one is for the sole purpose of F4Fing. Then, they notify all their followers about a project on their main.

the rule is that the creator can't do this, because their followers will already know.

But couldn't someone use it to show people all of your projects, or be used over and over to spam?

we will just use the can't follow other and other code for this
basiclly, code the system so you can't re-notify.

Yes, but you can use the Share With Followers button to share all of your projects. And that's bad news, because users like me with 473 projects could use it to spam your messages.

maybe we should add a 10 minute rule where you can't share with followers two times in ten minutes

That would cause a lot of users to complain. People already groan over waiting one minute between each post. Imagine 10 minutes between each share.
