She definitely has skeletons in her closet, ranging from past litigation to her husband, and isn't a great icon for women in male dominated fields. That being said, her short time running reddit and what happened after she left (a flood of subreddit deletions, founders retaking control of the site only to ignore the major issues & laugh at her demise) shouldn't reflect on her. The founders of reddit used her as a sacrificial lamb to create an uproar resulting in her removal, that then gave them cover to ban a bunch of subreddits. I still hope that there will be a large split, similar to /r/Seattle vs /r/SeattleWA, whereby a successor to reddit takes the lions share of the active posters and commenters, though I don't see that happening soon sadly.
