I would love more outlets for creative coding, I feel like neocities is a bit like that. That said there isn't really a scene or real sense of community (AFAIK). I mean someone liked something I uploaded once, but I never interacted with them again.

Cohost had fun vibes like that as well, but I guess it's no longer with us. Same with Glitch, but admittedly I didn't use it in the last few years, but it was my go to option for hosting a snippet of unserious HTML. "HTML in the park" does seem like one fun IRL outlet for this kind of thing, I found out my city has one and I want to go to it.

Admittedly none of these were really demo scenes or places where creative coding was exclusively fostered, but creative coding and demo-like-scenes communities probably exist but are more likely some obscure discord server.

I would argue dwitter is demoscene reinvented for the internet age.

That is fantastic, except the trees are clearly not pines [1]. It's ... Scrolling Spruces [2]!

Do you know of any good twitter lists to get an idea of who’s interesting to follow?

~I've begun to set up creative coding events in my city just due to this. I'd love to join an online community to show stuff off, I always find places like twitter end up feeling like you're shouting into the void.

It's not about loads of people commenting and liking your work, just finding a place to actually discuss it would be fantastic

Hard agree on twitter feeling like you’re shouting into a void

I recently starting dabbling in live coding and found it to be really hard and fun and technical and creative. And while I'm not really that comfortable in Discord, I did find the community welcoming and helpful.

What discord's are good for live coding/creative coding?

TOPLAP is the one I’m most familiar with and it is nicely organized by live coding env/lang. There are some other servers listed here: https://github.com/toplap/awesome-livecoding

HTML in the Park is one of my favourite events in Toronto! Great crowd, I highly recommend attending yours or setting one up if nobody runs one.
