rename "browse projects" link or show some projects by default on "browse" page

[jribbens]

The "browse projects" link just takes you to an empty search page. (This is unrelated to #3746, at the current time the search is working.)

@jribbens Can you include a screenshot of what you're seeing? Seems to be working to me.

@jribbens you need to enter a search query or begin selecting a filter from the list of classifiers on the left.

Try one of the sample queries in the help box.

Effectively a restatement of #3462

[jribbens]

You've misunderstood the issue. The link on the front page says "browse projects", yet clicking on it does not allow you to browse projects, it just gives you an empty page. Obviously you can search, but someone clicking on "browse" doesn't want to search, they want to browse. At the very least the "browse" link is confusing and redundant as it takes you to the same place as the search box on the front page.

[jribbens]

No, this is completely different to #3462, which isn't talking about browsing at all.

@jribbens Thanks for clarifying! It sounds like this is an outcome of a change we made regarding #3062 -- I've renamed the issue to reflect your recent comment.
