Ability to sort what projects appear in studios and favourites row [Read The Entire Post]

(I made a new topic because the old one was mysteriously not getting any replies even after a few days)
For my computer, try to get into the see more section takes a lot of time, making it really tough to access some studios

And I mostly can't favorite most stuff because another important favorited project gets hidden from the favorites row

So I think we should be able to sort how our studios and favorites row should look like, it should give more personalization over the profile page.

Also unimportant studios which you can't find your username in could be sent to the back so that it doesn't take up space from more important studios

Basically, If Studio1 was one of your older studios you joined, but it's very important, you could send it into the studios row

On the other hand, if Studio21 is an unimportant studio you joined, but you can't find your username in, you can do the next best thing and send it out of the studios row.

It also helps to reduce feedback used as an advertising strategy, as any project used for fame could just be hidden away

There will be a small dropdown with 4 options to help order your studios,
If you imagined the order of the studios as layers in the Scratch Editor, it sort of works like these blocks
go to [front v] layer :: looks// Once this option is clicked, this sets the selected studio as the most recent studio curated, 
// irrespective of chronological order.

go to [back v] layer :: looks// Once this option is clicked, this sets the selected studio as the oldest studio curated,
// irrespective of chronological order.

go forward [1 v] layers :: looks// Once this option is clicked, this brings the selected studio to be more recent than the
//studio after it, irrespective of chronological order. The dropdown can bring this forward 1, 5, 10,
// 20, or even 50 places forward.

go back [1 v] layers :: looks// Once this option is clicked, this brings the selected studio to be more recent than the
// studio after it, irrespective of chronological order. The dropdown can bring this backward 1, 5, 10,
// 20, or even 50 places forward.

Here is a mock-up explaining how this works….


—————————————————–Frequent Reasons For Rejection———————————————————-
1. You can use a hack to leave a studio easily, so this isn't needed.
Ans. I don't think this is a solution to this because

1.This is not something beginners to scratch can find easily, so an easier way would definitely help
2. This may not be compatible for all browsers, scratch features should be for everyone, not just for specific browsers.

2. Just unfave and refave to put a project in the favourites row, this isn't really needed
This isn't very practical with lots of important faved projects if you have to go into them, not having to go inside the project just for changing the order will save a lot of time.

Also, if you messed up the order of one project, you don't have to change the order of every project behind, it, you could just send it to the correct position easily.

This seems like a good idea, but it would ruin many themes. For one, what you favoirted should appear on your profile. Not something random that you will keep for a long time just to advertise it. For the studio one, again, all projects shoudl be represented. Not the chosen ones.

I tried scouting through @Za-Chary's list of rejected suggestions… But I couldn't find anything useful. I'll leave this to the higher ups, then.

This only works for projects that aren't yours,so the favorites row won't be redundant, not much views are gained from putting studios in the front of the my studios row anyway, but it very much helps to visit important studios hidden away because of newer, less important studios.

I don't have much to say other than that I personally would use this feature if it were implemented. I don't want to curate more than 20 studios because I'm too lazy to click “See more,” but if I could sort my studios, I can put the important ones on my profile page and forget about the rest.

Exactly, It would also help for computers that load the “See More” page very slowly

I completely support this. Personally, I have a couple of studios I visit often, which have been pushed to the back by a bunch of newer ones that I really don't.

Perhaps if this feature is implemented, we could see even more customization options in the future? I've wanted that for a while now. 400 characters of description, - Less than a single comment - one tiny little image, and a single featured project just doesn't cut it.

Yes, but for those options, a brand new topic should be added
