I personally think that the “What's Happening” feed doesn't quite get enough emphasis. I only see the “What's Happening” for the 5 seconds every day when I boot up my computer and login to Scratch. After that, I'm on the forums, looking at projects or in the editor, forgetting about “What's Happening.” I don't want that to happen because I follow people for the reason that I'd like to see their upcoming projects. I suggest that we put a few check boxes in the “Account settings” tab that integrate the “What's Happening” and Messages. There would be four checkboxes:
-Receive a message when someone I'm following shares a project.
-Receive a message when someone I'm following loves or favorites a project.
-Receive a message when someone I'm following follows a user or a studio.
-Receive a message when someone I'm following becomes a curator or manager of a studio.
This way, I would check the box to give me a message when someone I'm following shares a project, so I don't miss out on a project from someone I'm following and everyone's happy . Just as a quick side note, when someone first joins Scratch they will have all the boxes unchecked.

Does that mean you support?

Probably.
I'll support too. However, I visit the front page a lot because I tend to look at what the people I follow look at.

As mentioned, I don't really do that.

Most definitely! I wouldn't follow anyone if it meant I would never actually be notified of their actions.

Totally! I mean like on the homepage, I mostly look at the projects…. SO I think it would be a great Idea.

No support. I get enough unwanted messages with studio updates but this is the last thing I need.

That's why you would be able to turn it off.
