As a recipient of angel funding from several investors including Alexis, I can tell you he's one of the very best you could hope for.
Sure, he's not a hacker and he doesn't pretend to be. An angel doesn't need to be.
But his insights into cultivating and maintaining a highly engaged online community, developed over four years both before and after Reddit's acquisition, could be trumped by very few people in the world if any.
Alexis has already made small, early-stage investments in about 10-15 companies. He invests in companies where he is excited by the concept and the founders, and he goes far beyond the norm in offering advice, moral support, and of course mascot design.
I'd strongly recommend him to any startup that was lucky enough to rouse his interest.
