Back a few months ago, I saw them everywhere in my google searches, nowadays they don't show up in any of my google searches. Even if I use different devices, incognito, vpn, etc.<p>Even the popular websites that supported them heavily dont show up in my google searches, anyone have insights about this?
Still there I.e.: <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=layoffs&rlz=1CDGOYI_enAT855AT855&oq=layoffs&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l3j69i60.7711j0j4&hl=en-GB&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/search?q=layoffs&rlz=1CDGOYI_enAT855A...</a><p>on mobile crome, ios device
Amp not marked in the news section (1 of 3)<p>3 times in the organic results, marked with a flash icon.<p>The day amp goes away is a day I celebrate. Huge ongoing project overhead for a subpart user experience (and crappy brittle technology) all in the name of SEO.
AMP pages are still there if you are still using Google on mobile.<p>I switched to duckduckgo on my phone for now.<p>I'm thinking about building a search page where the query goes to my home desktop computer where I run headless Chrome to scrape results from all the search engines and then forward them back to my phone. Unfortunately, Apple will not fucking let me use a custom search engine in Safari on the iPhone, probably because they're in cahoots with Google and China to bring about a new world order where nobody has any freedom whatsoever. xD
I don't know but I'm glad they are gone if that's the case. I only use Google very rarely these days and if an amp page presents itself to me umatrix completely blocks it and I take the actual URL from the amp URL and visit the actual site.<p>I hate what Google is trying to do to the web!
