I'm gonna re-post the rant I posted last time this came up:
> As a mobile user, I hate it.
> I hate that every fucking google search result on mobile web has its stupid little icon
> I hate that there is no way for me to disable it as a user
> I hate that it has muddied the waters in what the url bar means
> I hate that it has trained users to not question fake url bars.
> I hate that cloudflare so thoroughly jumped on its dick
> I hate that we invented a way to fake the address in the url bar just for this stupid fucking feature.
> I hate that we now have a system where somebody can share a page url with a friend, and that friend can view it on the same device model using the same browser with the same settings, and will get a different page because one was viewing an amp page but shared it's real url.
> I hate that every fucking amp page is lower featured in some way, and almost never works in desktop mode.
> And most of all, I hate that it leads to everybody offloading shit onto google's servers.
> AMP is not fast because it's served from google's CDN. AMP is fast because it's incompatible with 99% of the bullshit client cpu heavy tracking and ad libraries, so they don't get included inside AMP pages.
