As part of the devs farewell message on their site, they have included malicious code to make each visitor sends 2,000 requests to the dbzer0 servers in an attempt to DDOS and take the instance offline.

I could understand his initial intention of having some kind of nsfw filter for radical opinions, even though the implementation was questionable. And I was honestly sad about the shit storm that hit him. Too many people here pretend to be more respectful and empathetic than average, but will happily dogpile to get a piece of a person given the right momentum.
But this ddos code is hard to defend, it goes against his own initial intention. He should have walked away before reaching this point.
Can we avoid adding new events to this sad chain of events now?
Radical opinions such as supporting trans people or being against genocide.
I think he explained the trans related instances were not blocked because trans but because their admins did not moderate the calls for violence he wanted to filter.
“People here pretend to be nice, but get angry when I try to secretly push them out of the conversation”
Shut up, idiot.
