There are a lot more. Here’s another I found in under half a minute:

You seem to have already had your mind made up, though, and are maybe not actually interested in evidence.

He doesn't even mention his name in this article.

Let's all pretend he totally wasn't going out of his way to prevent burning bridges with his Apple connections but starts throwing Alan under the bus after he's gone like he was so obviously the problem at Apple.

We don’t have to pretend; there’s ample evidence. Here’s one from 2020 that specifically calls Dye out: https://daringfireball.net/2021/01/my_2020_apple_report_card

You seem to have an axe to grind against Gruber, are immune to all evidence against your preconceived worldview, and are projecting this behavior onto the other side of the discussion.

The same example shared upthread.

So two mentions in 5 years?

How many times would appease you?

At least 50% as harsh before his departure than he is afterwards.

How about this sarcastic and brutal bit, on his podcast (end of July):

"But maybe instead of firing him, they start selling pizzas out of the back of Apple stores and Alan Dye can run that and do the graphic design on the boxes. Do the menus. I think Alan Dye could kill that with his Levi's experience, right?"

That's rougher than anything he has said post-firing, in my opinion.

All criticism of Apple’s UI would count, as Dye was in charge of it and ultimately responsible, whether he is named in the article or not.

And Gruber has been at least this harsh on the UI before.
