We are forced by the prominent AMP carousel that shows up in search results that drives meaningful revenue to publishers (but cannibalizes our traffic to the regular page where on a CPM level ads are worth more).
If they removed that then AMP would die quickly.
- dmitrygr 9y agoAnd if environmental regulations were removed, many industries would be better off too (at the cost to the world). As a user I LOVE amp because it loads faster than your crap page and doesn't bug me with interstitials. So yes, if AMP died, you'd better off, at the cost to the users And save me the sob story about how only some publishers suck. I don't care. You all lost our (user) trust with your interstitials and crap ads and sites that took minutes to load. Game over, with many thanks to Google. Our abusive relationship with you is over. We the users hereby walk away and will never take you back. Stomping you feet won't help.
- AlexandrB 9y ago> Our abusive relationship with you is over. We the users hereby walk away and will never take you back. Stomping you feet won't help. This is exactly backwards. I don't want an ad company (Google) serving as a middleman for all my web browsing. The most abusive relationship is the one you have little choice in - and Google is such a huge portion of the web that it's nearly impossible to avoid. Now Google is leveraging the inroads they made with AMP in the web to force it into email as well. To borrow your analogy, this is like letting Exxon Mobil set the environmental regulations for everyone.
