The team behind Linux Mint yeah, primarily.
With some community contributors, usually from other projects.
If you'd read on its history, Cinnamon was a fork of Gnome 3.
That was when things went crappy on and beyond LM Lisa.
I believe it was initially from then Mint Gnome Shell Extensions
and they eventually started to write something that would be more well-rounded for their use case.
btw, Gnome 4 - 39 never existed. They just renamed it to ver. 40 instead of v. 4
