In the recent Lemmy developer update, there’s a reference to one Lemmy developer, SleeplessOne1917.
I found some horrifying comments from this user.
https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649200 - “There is no such thing as an Israeli civilian. All settlers are valid targets.”
https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649472 - “15 year olds are military age. That makes them valid targets for killing.”
https://lemmygrad.ml/comment/2649732 - “… There is no such thing as a zionoid civilian. Everything that moves and isn’t Palestinian is a valid target. …”

Edit: New comment from the user “Cry more. Israelis need to be eliminated. Death to Israel, and death to Amerikkka!”

You might want to reinvestigate. @cannotsleep420 is the one that made those comments and they are a dev.

You can look up my other comment for more examples, but this one is the most clear:

They may not be the same person, although I suspect they are as the lemmy.ml account isn’t active, but either way 420 is at a minimum a contributor

I understand that. @cannotsleep420 is still in that Lemmy update thread mentioning development to-dos.
Feel free to share that thread link. In the meantime, here’s the actual dev account: /u/SleeplessOne1917@lemmy.ml. And their selfless unpaid work removing pedos from find-lemmy: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/3630011
Yeah they don’t use that account. It’s pretty clear to me they’re active on their lemmygrad account over the lemmy.ml one.
Here they are mentioning dev work:

I deleted my previous response as it was a bit dickish. I stand corrected, this is pretty strong evidence.
All good, I’ve gone after people too hard too (got a mean comment deleted yesterday in fact, I was definitely wrong). It’s good to have scruples
It’s a little too easy to be mean on the internet. Human nature, I guess, when you can’t see who you’re talking to.
@SleeplessOne1917 seems to be their GitHub handle. You can see this by going to one of the pull requests that are linked in the thread (e.g instance block feature)
@cannotsleep420 seems to be their lemmy handle. You can see this by going to the thread link the OP posted, in which that account is commenting about the UI tweaks.
Both accounts list their location as ‘Burgerland’(?) so they’re most likely the same dev. Plus the ‘SleeplessOne1917’ lemmy handle you linked has absolutely no activity.
You can also see @cannotsleep420 crossposting earlier lemmy changelogs that mention @SleeplessOne1917…
