The thing I hate most about AMP is how when you want to share the page you can't just copy the URL and send to people without it being the AMP URL.
I wish apple would create a no-AMP option in Safari and just auto redirect to the normal page.
- kmeisthax 6y agoGoogle's solution to this is to basically build the distributed web so that browsers can show the correct origin and URL when they hit Google's AMP proxy.
- jonplackett 6y agoThis is even worse. Sometimes now you click to get the real URL, and it’s still a god damn AMP page. I hate AMP with a firey passion.
- Spivak 6y agoI think you've got this backwards. This is "democratized CDNs" not "AMP for Everything." Web Bundles are a replacement for AMP that's not Google specific. With Web Bundles the only thing that a cache can do is serve you an immutable asset that is signed by the original publisher exactly as if you had connected to the origin server.
- jonplackett 6y agoIs the thing you’re talking about when you get a url like amp.whateverdomain.com? If so I don’t like that either. They always feel a little bit broken compared to the real url.
- arn 6y agoApple sort of does this on mobile Safari and its a frustrating / unexpected experience. If you are on a website in mobile safari, and you hit the share button, and select Copy. What gets copied into the clipboard is actually the Canonical url rather than the actual one you are at. So for /amp/ pages, it ends up copying the non-amp url. imo, it's a bad experience because sometimes canonicals and non canonicals aren't exactly the same. For example, if I'm looking at a specific filter or sort, then it might make sense for the canonical to be the non-sorted version. But if I'm sharing a specific url, I want it to share exactly what I'm looking at.
