I think the Verge messed up: the announcement said there would be a full-text RSS feed for subscribers, but they’ve actually added full article text to the existing feed, where normally I’d only get 2 or 3 paragraphs.
Their sister site Vox made a similar mistake; their RSS feed already had full text, but once they added the paywall I got the full text of articles that were paywalled if I tried to click through to the site. It’s like Vox Media doesn’t fully understand how its RSS feeds work.
They always had everything as full text but now some articles require going to their website. Or request full text via Readability / Postlight parser in your RSS client of choice.
