I'd add there is a third category, "curious technology enthusiasts", that just like to read well-written article on some new topic.

I personally am not "retro renderer enthusiast" nor have similar project, but this article was joy to read.

That's a good audience too. You'll note that choosing this one significantly changes how you'd write: You would naturally find yourself including a lot more context and background information because you don't assume the reader has it already.

Either audience choice is fine, I just think it's interesting how it impacts the resulting writing.
