Thank you for explaining this. I see what you mean and it’s great that you want to take the extra step to actually visit the site rather than consuming content directly on the feed.
It’s something I also do I’d say 70% of the time. Some sites are just too enjoyable to browse and I prefer to read there.
Others are not so great (bad typography and bad colors can make the reading experience very unpleasant) and I read on my RSS in those cases.
Which is why I think full content in rss feeds should be the way to go. It allows me to chose how to consume the content.
If you only serve excerpts I have no other option but to read on the site even if the reading experience is terrible.

Maybe the solution here is to have two feeds?
