"Requiring a readable version of these sites is a great idea. Let's take it one step further and make it the only version."

- boramalper 9y agoI have the same opinion with Cegłowski and I too prefer plain web-sites, but I especially tried to avoid controversy. People, or rather developers, seem to happily exchange lightweightness for more features and media-rich web-sites. I think Google was right in suggesting AMP, since web-pages were becoming increasingly inaccessible to people with bad/slow Internet connection, but Google was also wrong in restricting it to mobile devices. Lastly, as Cegłowski also said, AMP depended far too much on Google rather than being an open standard that works across browsers.
