And yet, it's a miracle how a few lines of CSS & JS server from a high-speed server makes a website load faster. So, no, we don't need AMP to make webpages faster. To make a website fast (OTTOMH): 1. Optimize the content we deliver, (HTML, CSS, JS, etc...). Minimise the time for all content and First Meaningful Paint. 2. CDN servers. Bring the servers closer to the user, geographically. 3. File compression during transport. Stuff like gzip and HTTP/2.0 (which isn't a compression algo, but inherently makes the pages load faster, which was the objective) Edit(s): Some formatting & content, somewhat new to HN
