Is sizecoding the same as the demoscene?
Size optimizing assembly code finds use in a variety of places. Demoscene for size constrained things is one of them, but also "hacking"/exploits and of course "whitehat" stuff (patches / compiler optimization etc).
Relevant link to the current masters of the sizecoding niche: https://marqueedesign.demoscene.com/
You could call it a sub-scene of the demoscene, I suppose.
