Hello Shopify Community,

I’m experiencing an issue with the Buy Button on my product page. Currently, it only shows the “Buy with PayPal” option, even when no PayPal account is connected in the browser. I expected to see a generic “Buy Now” button, especially when accessing the store from a private tab or a different browser.
