The Web hasn't recovered from it, either. In retrospect, they obviously did it to pave way for AMP. Now that AMP is gone, maybe there's a small chance they could bring it back.
- Reason077 6y agoI dunno. They easily could have integrated AMP into Reader, couldn’t they?
- exikyut 6y agoIt was a different time. Back then, people would have shot it dead for tech-astroturfing. Today, people wouldn't see the point since AMP is more convenient anyway. /s
- rhacker 6y agoI'm guessing it's not coming back - it competes with google news which makes Google money where reader did not.
- SquareWheel 6y agoAMP doesn't cause any issues for RSS readers. People are still using Inoreader, Feedly, etc just fine today. > Now that AMP is gone Why do you say that?
- Reason077 6y ago> "Why do you say that?" Recently it was reported that Google will no longer give search-result priority to AMP pages. Which means any incentive for publishers to support them is gone.
- SquareWheel 6y agoThat seems pretty speculative. We've known AMP would be losing its priority in the carousel for almost a year now, but I haven't seen any reduction in its usage.
