Yeah it feels a bit wild to add ads to the experience while charging 5x as much to remove them as the Reddit Synce app on a service that people are hosting on good will and at a loss, compared to Reddit being itself ad filled and a premium selling service.
It'd be different if like some of the subscription went to the servers people use or something. But it really feels like taking from everyone and charging a pretty high price for it compared to any app, let alone a front end only one.
