If anyone else, like me, had no idea what this is even about then I found https://www.pouet.net/faq.php.

So it seems it's a bunch of demos from the 90s (or written for 90s hardware) running on emulators in the browser.

I used to have an Amiga back then, and I remember the demo scene. They basically wrote programs that would push the limits of the hardware to demonstrate what is possible. Some of them were quite mind-blowing as they would seemingly do stuff that you would know, from playing games, was not possible.

What do you mean 90s! Here's one this year's winning 32 byte demo from rrrola: https://parkertomatoes.github.io/demo-parade/?which=96021 Here's one this year's winning 256 byte demo being presented: https://youtu.be/2p5HCTUNgfU?t=535

Basically, once it is 256 bytes or less, DOS is one of the few options you have left, everything else would need more than that in headers/symbols.
