Still no support, indeed, this could be practical because of some of the examples listed above, but I don't really think it's that necessary. If something happens and you have to share a project a bit later, it's not that much of a problem anyways, just share it a bit later. It's not because you share a project 2 or 3 days late that everyone is going to be that disappointed and unfollow you and be mad at you, etc. Simply manually share it a bit later. It won't cause drama or anything. That's also why I never make promises about when I'll share a project. I say “maybe next week”, “perhaps tonight”, etc., but never “will be out today at 7:31 PM and 28 seconds without a doubt”.

Support. This would help people a lot if they are going a place that doesn't have any internet, and they need to release a project at a set time. It would also help in case of a power outage or internet outage.

While this would be a cool feature to have, it's a feature I think that is biased towards bigger Scratchers who state to their large following exactly when they'll release their new project, so this feature isn't very necessary. Auto-sharing is more suited to websites like Youtube or Twitch, which both have a lot more traffic, are focused towards a more mature audience than Scratch and are used by a lot of companies and people who may want to premiere something at an exact time, whether doing it out of surprise or telling their fans from another social media platform.
I agree but there is absolutely no reason not to add this.

Support, this would be very useful. Last year, I made a Christmas project in August (it was the only thing I had motivation to do) and I of course couldn't share it then, so I had it sitting in My stuff for 4 months waiting for Christmas to come along to share it. One thing though, maybe it should be called “Schedule share” instead of “Auto-share” I don't know, that just sounds more fitting. Though “Auto-share” isn't even the official name, it was just in the mockup, I still wanted to mention that.

No support. Doing this is highly unstable, what if the servers are down or your internet breaks during the sharing time? Then you would never know whether it got shared or not, because you would end up trusting this auto-share feature.
But that is a problem for a lot of things.

I had the same idea, and would definitely support! I noticed one con brought up was that if servers are down or something goes wring, it may never share, but there could be a feature that sends a message when shared, so you know for sure it went up. If not, then you can just share it when servers go up again

This would be nice, as on some days I’m taking a hiatus, but still want to share some of my unshared projects. Support.

Support because if you were going on a vacation and you needed to share a project in that time you could schedule it (people have probably coded bots that could do it tho).

Support. I think it would be useful, if you only had time to make projects during a specific day or part of the week but wanted to share projects every few days, you could schedule it to share.

I support this! Because of school, if you can't get on to scratch at the specific date/time you promised, this would 100% help out!
In fact, I had the same idea but I then found out it was a duplicate of this thread.

Support, very useful if you want an exact release timer I guess, can help if your away and can't log in. Maybe restrict access for this on new scratchers, I don't know. Still good though!

I just realized this is about 2 years old.
