I've been hanging out on the Handmade Network Discord channel recently. Mostly because I've developed RSI so can't work as much on Mu, and because I'm bored staying home for months on end.

https://handmade.network/manifesto

The site seems to be some sort of offshoot from a channel where a game developer used to screencast himself developing a game: https://handmadehero.org/watch

From what I can piece together, Handmade Network periodically has some sort of Jam for a few days where a few people hack on projects following some theme.

The most recent theme was Lisp: https://handmade.network/blogs/p/7390

Flip was built for the Lisp Jam. You can see a demo about it here: https://discord.com/channels/239737791225790464/485261036308... (though you'll need to sign up to that Discord group)

There was a discussion about it, a sort of debrief after the Jam, that you can read at https://discord.com/channels/239737791225790464/707742863076....

It's already sparked a bunch of ideas for me: https://mastodon.social/@akkartik/104780599045128839. So decent payoff on being bored and finding this community :)

Sounds interesting. Sorry about the RSI. Went to using an ergonomic keyboard, which seems to have squelched it for me.
