Hera is petty af and holds grudges like crazy, but she also knows when to quit (usually). When Heracles and Dionysus came to live on Olympus she let them be, even developing a positive relationship with both of them. So to see adaptation that depict her as still trying to sabotage them even after they become Olympians feels like a complete misunderstanding of her character.

she is a literal trans icon and to deny that will get you smited by all the gods
