I only didn't like Ellen Pao because she was kind of a scumbag of a person. I'm glad to see her go, but Reddit is still on it's way downhill without her because her lawsuits and husband weren't what was dragging it down in the first place.
At the least the ridiculous shadowbanning of real people will go away, because spez actually remembers it was meant to stop spammers not to secretly censor the users that don't agree with the admins.
