Yeah, that weird button label is a huge tell It doesn't exist because readers thought "wow, that snippet is so cool, I wanna subscribe to the publication before reading the article"

Instead, think of that button as an awkward placeholder to teach publishers how to support standard.site "All you need to do is add a single record for your publication ... here, + and one for each article ... there. You'll know it worked when you see a preview card that looks like ... this"

Eventually we'll get a more confident, polished UX which is easier for readers to skim because it doesn't stutter so much (Count how many "don't be nice" or "daniel roe dev" variants appear on that card +/or the post itself) But for now, there needs to be some prominent difference from web cards

Where do we open a PR to change it to "View Article" that does the expected think, and then the little left "by @..." links to the publication. Because that make 1000% more sense.

I didn't quite make it "View article" because I didn't want to change the behaviour of the button (+ there's some `Subscribe to XXX` alternatives here and there), but I filed a PR to make it explicit the button does *not* go to the article github.com/bluesky-soci...
