- waynesonfire 4y agoMakes sense. That must have been the "loss of control over user experience" that publishers complained about.
- arcticbull 4y agoUnfortunately it hijacked scrolling, navigation and search which more than made up for the lack of annoying newsletter popups. I personally use the Amplosion plug-in for Safari on iOS which nukes AMP pages from orbit transparently, substituting their standard variant. [1] [1] https://amplosion.app https://amplosion.app

- AlexCoventry 4y agoI liked it because it dangled the possibility of author signatures on content, via RealURL.
