Found on 24 September 2026 by searching GitHub's commit index for the address browsercookies published for this persona in the profile-picture thread of 17 May 2025. GitHub mints a noreply address from an account's immutable numeric id, in the form id+handle@users.noreply.github.com, so a former handle is a matter of record; and GitHub attributes a commit to whichever account has its address registered, which only the address's holder can do. github.com/fromancient is account id 55820888, created on 26 September 2019, with 139 public repositories. Its noreply addresses show it was previously named timon0219, frostsnow0219 and andressnow0219. Of the 100 commits GitHub's search returns for it, 18 are signed joinercantillo0801@gmail.com, the persona's name in a second mailbox, and seventeen of its repositories hold 56 commits signed joinercantillo0813@gmail.com, the address browsercookies published, dated May 2024 to May 2025. GitHub attributes the published address to the login dev-hacki, which no longer resolves; it is recorded as the account that held the address.

Commit addresses this index holds

From gh-fake-analyzer 1.0.2, the Ketman Project's GitHub analysis tool, run on 2026-10-03. 7 other commit addresses are held for review rather than listed. These are signals: backdated history and several commit identities are common among ordinary developers too, and an account that shows none of them is not thereby cleared.
