Who uses AMP? I've only ever heard of it on Hacker News but never seen it when using Google or any news websites. What actions does a normal user have to take to use AMP?

Nothing. By default, Google will show you the AMP page when you tap a search result if it’s available

  It's not working for me. Do I have to use Chrome on Android? I just tested on Firefox Linux, Chromium Linux, Safari iOS, and Firefox Android.

    Google anything news related, you'll see the symbol next to the URL you click, and you'll notice it loads rather quickly too.

Look for the lightning bolt when searching for news on Google on a mobile device.

  I don't see it. Here's a screenshot on Firefox Android. https://i.imgur.com/vuJavS8.png https://i.imgur.com/vuJavS8.png All the links go to cnn.com, usatoday.com, etc.

    Try the 'All' tab, specifically the carousel.
