Yep. I was on Reddit for more than 10 years and provided content regularly. Paying $5 or so a month to access the site using Sync would have been OK, but there's no way I'm going to use their crappy app and be inundated by ads while they suck up data from my phone.
IMO Reddit has lost a big stream of easy income from people like me who would have been long-term subscribers. Instead the BS they've pulled in the last couple of months have pushed me to delete all my posts and comments and leave the site completely.
