We can appreciate that Google &lt;i&gt;encouraged&lt;/i&gt; developers to get rid of bloat &lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt;AND&lt;i&gt;&lt;/i&gt; to opt-in for AMP, but that doesn&amp;#x27;t make AMP &lt;i&gt;technically&lt;/i&gt; superior. I think we should give a critique of ourselves and ask why did we wait for a corporation G to push us to get rid of the bloat we created?</text><parent_chain><item><author>sturmen</author><text>There&amp;#x27;s a lot of backlash against AMP on principle, which I agree with and support.

<instructions>Your goal is to analyze the following comment and estimate how highly it will be upvoted by the Hacker News community.</instructions><comment><author>kavok</author><text>On iOS I usually find AMP pages to be less usable. It forces a bar at the top and I can&amp;#x27;t easily share the link. Sometimes sites don&amp;#x27;t seem to work at all. For a long time any Reddit link on the Google Search results just didn&amp;#x27;t load on iOS for me.&lt;p&gt;I run an adblocker and use reading mode frequently. I do not usually suffer any issues with ads even without AMP. It is solving a problem I do not have and creating more problems in the process.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sturmen</author><text>There&amp;#x27;s a lot of backlash against AMP on principle, which I agree with and support.
