Has anyone cancelled their D&D Beyond subscription as a protests over the OGL?

I sure did, and told them why in the "But why are you cancelling?!?!?" box.

I cancelled my sub today since it seems to be the only thing wotc really cares about. I'm paid up until November anyway so I still have access to the features for as long as I expect I'll still be playing 5e.

 

[HaroldTheHobbit]

Yes, cancelled.

Seems there's a Twitter hashtag about doing such a thing now. It's called #DnDBegone

So for those that do, will you loose access to future playtests and feedback?

Yeah, you need it to access the material and survey.

Which is why I'm waiting till the next one, to fire off my complaints.

Yeah I cancelled mine. Im a DM inbetween campaigns and looks like the next one will not be 5e.

This is a bit restrictive and loaded. Where is the option -
"No I won't cancel even though in principle I do object" which I am sure is the most common answer.

WOTC has done far worse than this, including claims of racism, sexism, anti-Union actions and abusing creators. While few were supportive of WOTC in these examples, few also canceled their subscription.

They do have an option for this. It's the "I'm satisfied with this situation" option. Because if you don't take action that is what you are effectively saying.

 

[Lojaan]

Totally premature.

Not at all. You can "un-cancel" your sub at any time, so if WotC change tack you can just start up again at no cost.

You need an account, you don't need a paid subscription. Paid subscriptions are what WotC care about.

I mentioned this elsewhere, but while that is true to a point, total user count also matters. Subs can come back, going through the process of getting your account nuked is an additional layer of dedication to the cause of telling Wizards to say hello to Asmodeus.
