- Someone 9y agohttps://9to5mac.com/2017/08/24/ios-11-safari-amp-links/ https://9to5mac.com/2017/08/24/ios-11-safari-amp-links/: ”It appears Safari implemented a special case. We’d prefer a more generic solution where browsers would share the canonical link by default, but this works for us.” ⇒ I don’t think they use rel=canonical.
- stephenr 9y agoI think it means they only use the canonical link for sharing when the page renders via AMP. Twitter has annoyingly, started directing mobile clients to "AMP" pages. I followed a tweeted link to a reddit thread and got to amp.reddit.com. Safari gave me the regular www.redit.com page when sharing. Also. This was I believe the first time I'd actually seen an AMP page in the wild (I dont use Google search or Chrome). It makes me question Google's motives even more because my first interaction with it is: Holy fucking shit, it just showed me a blank white page for several seconds and then showed me what looks more like a plain text print out of the page than a mobile version of Reddit, whereas the normal reddit page is responsive, still has functionality and loaded almost instantly.
