How to fight back against Google AMP as a web user and a web developer
Here's one great takeaway:<p>> Treat the cause: Third-party requests slow down the web<p>> ...<p>> - Google owns 7 of the top 10 most popular third-party calls<p>> ...<p>> So you can see why there must be some kind of internal struggle at Google. They understand the value of a faster web but they also cannot go after the main cause of the slow web. And this is how technology such as AMP gets invented and makes things worse.<p>It blows my mind how many devs around here are devoted to their browser and search.<p>Stop using chrome. Honestly, wtf?! Firefox is awesome. FF dev tools are awesome. FF, like Wu Tang, is for the kids.<p>STOP USING google SEARCH! USE DUCKDUCKGO! Use the `!gm` google maps bang when you need it. Use the `!g` google bang in a pinch, but for all of our sake, please wean yourself off of google search.<p>These two steps are immensely easy to do, and yet a MAJOR investment in all of our future.
