The reason we need AMP now is that you can't otherwise preload a page in a privacy-preserving way.
Webpackaging will allow doing this without AMP though: https://github.com/WICG/webpackage/blob/master/explainer.md https://github.com/WICG/webpackage/blob/master/explainer.md
(Disclosure: I work at Google on making ads be AMP.)
- pdimitar 8y agoAre you sure this is going to be allowed at Google? Policy and all that. They don't exactly look to be condoning open standards in this regard. Would be happy if I am wrong though.
- jefftk 8y agoGoogle is one of the main groups working on it. For example, the draft https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-yasskin-dispatch-web-packaging-00 https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-yasskin-dispatch-web-packa... is by a Google employee.
