So, I feel fooled by wizards. I put my tokens on DnD and started buying books using DnD Beyond because of my belief that wizards are a company that supports content creators. So it comes the OGL 1.1 and says that you guys fooled me. You think about the community as a barrier to getting more money instead of the reality: "You are just getting money because you have a community.". Saying so, I want a full refund of all my bought content if this OGL 1.1 becomes the OGL currently in use.
The reason is that, as a customer, I'll fall fooled if that becomes true.
Just to be clear: 1) I have already decided to not buy an item on D&D Beyond that I otherwise would have because of OGL1.1 (Specifically, some Eberron content.) 2) The group I do the vast majority of my Role Play with primarily uses D&D. If the OGL 1.1 is not dropped very shortly, I will be actively encouraging them to move to a new system. 3) Once they do, I will not play D&D again - likely not even if they later adopt an Irrevocable OGL which clearly states that once authorized, its authorization cannot be revoked. At that point I will also permanently end by D&D Beyond subscription. 4) I am currently revising my prior determination to see the D&D Movie, and if the OGL 1.1 is not publicly blocked before it is released, I will not be watching it.
In short, the OGL 1.1 fiasco has already lost D&D Beyond and WotC money from me; and if it is prolonged, will permanently loose me as a customer in any capacity.
Cancel your subscriptions now. WotC is using DDB subscription cancellation as a metric to measure community backlash. You will still keep the benefits until the renewal date.

I feel the same way, and I'm already actively encouraging my friends to read more about Tormenta, that is a Brasilian RPG system.

I hate the situation WotC has put us in, I sit here next to my hundreds of dollars of Wizards D&D books (many bought in this last December) with Hundreds more of 3PP books (with more on the way). I enjoy D&D 5e. My group is enjoying 5e. So I will not stop playing 5e, but Wizards will never see a penny from me again. No D&D, no new M:tG. No movies, no tv shows. No random accessories or swag. Nothing
Wizards had their chance to act, and did nothing.
Wizards had their chance to see the writing on the wall, and did nothing.
If the leaks are true they heard us but rather than act they said "They will calm down, they will forget."
We are calming down but not in the way they want, we are just moving on.
We asked for change and you heard us but didn't care. So from now on you will get what you gave us.

Content about the new OGL
Just to be clear:
1) I have already decided to not buy an item on D&D Beyond that I otherwise would have because of OGL1.1 (Specifically, some Eberron content.)
2) The group I do the vast majority of my Role Play with primarily uses D&D. If the OGL 1.1 is not dropped very shortly, I will be actively encouraging them to move to a new system.

If you don't like the OGL, let WotC know.

Put #OpenDND in the reason for canceling.

I would do that, but I mostly use my bought content. That's the main reason for this post, I'll not accept to be fooled by them
