Those are my sentiments exactly. All I wanted was for him to state it by his own admission. He still promotes himself as a "Contributor to Wasabi Wallet" when anybody could request changes on Github whether they are implemented or rejected by the core team. In the past he always given the impression he is someone associated far closer to zkSNACKs than he actually was.
In his recent posts, he even stated zkSNACKs shutdown last month (when they did not) and avoided answering what his relationship with zkSNACKs was. He seems like a fraud going around trying to link himself to a project he can latch on to and then overstates his importance to both stroke his overinflated ego as well as to try to fool people in to believing he is someone important.
If looking to it from a viewpoint of an actual Open Source project, a contributor means that - simply a programmer who makes pull requests, and contributes code to the project/proposes changes. Your question should be if he's an official employee of zkSNACKS/who receives a salary or a sort of compensation directly from the company. Because if not, then a contributor is a contributor who works for free.
