Ash258 is not one of the official maintainers, but he's a very active member of the community (more active than the actual maintainers), commenting on most PRs to official buckets and maintaining his own bucket https://github.com/Ash258/Scoop-Ash258 as well as a Scoop fork https://github.com/Ash258/Scoop-Ash258 with many improvements and issue fixes over the upstream. He also mods the Scoop Discord server.
However, his comments are often harsh, like you noticed. He's mostly on-point, but is very quick to rudely shoot down anything he disagrees with. Also he bans discussing or even mentioning his fork of Scoop on the Discord server, which is super weird since he put it publicly on GitHub in the first place.
