No offense, but it's kind of annyoing that such nice and original projects like mine and others never get viewed and featured. I want a studio that can be highly viewed and you can actually propose your OWN projects, unlike propose projects to be featured.

The reason you can't propose your own projects is to ensure that quality projects get proposed, as someone will only propose something that isn't their own if they think it deserves it.

Unpopular projects already get featured, they just get popular so quickly you don't notice.

Heads up scratch team! Here is the studio I talked about:https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/studios/36338967

MAKE IT HIGHLY VIEWABLE!!!!!!!!!!

7.10 Propose your own projects to be featured
Scratchers can suggest projects that they think should be featured in the Propose Projects to be Featured studio. One of the rules of proposing projects is that you cannot propose your own projects to be featured. There are several reasons why this rule is in place. First, if users could propose their own projects, then there would be more requests in the studio, and it would be difficult for curators to add them all. Second, proposing someone else's project helps emphasize that Scratch is a helpful and supportive community, as proposing someone's project to be featured is an indication that the project creator has made a good project. Lastly, this verifies that at least one other person has seen the project and agrees that it is a feature-worthy project, leading to higher-quality proposals.

If you would like your own project to be featured, keep in mind that you can actually ask someone else to propose your project for you. Be sure to practice good advertising as described in this topic, and be polite when asking. Keep in mind that they may decide not to propose it; you should not try to force them to propose it.

7.16 Change the types of projects to be featured
The Scratch Team has a list of types of projects they are looking to feature in the Propose Projects to be Featured studio. Such a list has existed for years, and the Scratch Team is happy with the kinds of projects they have been featuring. While some Scratchers are unhappy with the types of projects being featured, it is ultimately up to the Scratch Team to decide what to feature.

(I'm too lazy to edit the links into the quote, so if you want to access them you can do so on the list itself)
You simply can't propose your own project to be featured on the front page. That's not how it works, as said in the propose projects to be featured studio description

And while I highly doubt your studio will meet the criteria, someone else could propose it to be featured on the front page by using this forum topic.

If you want your projects on the front page, you can always try participating in the current SDS which is always linked on the front page.

I understand your frustration, but the ST looks for unpopular projects to be featured, and there used to be an Front Page Curator system where you could sometimes ask a curator to put your project on the FPC section of the front page, but it's been taken down for now because of glitches and bugs.

i mean unless scratch adopts a tiktok like content consumption system there will always be this problem there are too many good projects but there cannot be a lot of popular projects
