Better Inoreader URL string for RSS subscriptions

If you use Inoreader (like I do) to subscribe to a huge variety of blogs/sites, you may not want to commit fully to subscribing. Maybe you just want to preview what a sites feed looks like. Get familiar with it, get some data on it, maybe star or tag an article or two, take it out for drinks, before committing. So maybe you want the choice of clicking that big beautiful "Subscribe" button in Inoreader without it automatically subscribing you first. Like this:

Inoreader in "dark theme" - feed auto-subscription vs. feed preview

If you look at that top image and go "ugh ??" but the bottom one makes you go "aah ?" then, like Avril Lavigne, Im with you.
