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!”

    In the recent Lemmy developer update, there’s a reference to one Lemmy developer, SleeplessOne1917.

    I found some horrifying comments from this user.

    The post then lists comments from /u/cannotsleep420@lemmygrad.ml, however the text over the name is SleeplessOne (without the number on the end). This account is also on lemmygrad, the lemmy devs’ main accounts are on lemmy.ml. Do you have anything to verify that they’re the same person, or that they are another dev? Because I see no “CannotSleep420” mentioned on the github page. The main two are actually /u/dessalines@lemmy.ml and /u/nutomic@lemmy.ml.

    Next you’ll be telling me that Hollywood actress Margot Robbie also moderates round these parts.

    Edit: They probably are the same person.

        They “contributed to the project”, that doesn’t mean they have any authority over lemmy development, as the top of the post is suggesting. “Contributing to the project” could mean just about anything.

        While I wouldn’t completely discount the possibility that they are the same person, this post provides no evidence of that. HOWEVER, this comment suggests they might well be!!

        TBF the future lemmy developer isn’t too far off. I’ve been discussing being added to the NLNet grant along with another person, phiresky, with Dessalines and Nutomic.

        @TokyoMonsterTrucker@lemmy.dbzer0.com you might be interested in that.
