Is there a facility for sharing compositions with other Forum users for feedback? Did anything replace Scorico which was launched in 2022 and then withdrawn?
In the absence of anything more substantial, I’ve created a page on my website to host Dorico project files of “standard repertoire” works; and all contributions are welcome: but that doesn’t extend to new compositions or arrangements (mostly to avoid licensing/rights issues).
However, plenty of people post links here to audio files on Soundcloud etc. of their compositions, or even upload project files, to allow deeper scrutiny.
Coincidentally, this has just been posted:

Hi Ben
Thank you for your suggestions and for getting back to me so quickly. It was interesting to hear William Hartmann’s “Marionettes”. I hadn’t previously noticed any similar posts where composers have invited forum readers to share their music. Your website is full of information. The “Digital Music Engraving” looks really useful. (I am not an early music fan, with a few exceptions such as Lotti.)
My composer friend, Patrick, is grieving the loss of Finale and, though he has downloaded Dorico, is not using it. I shall show him some of your posts where you praise Dorico to the hilt! I’m delighted with it, too, having used Sibelius in the past with limited satisfaction.
Best wishes
Jenny
