Google AMP about hosts HOT 5 CLOSED

Yes it is. I think AMP is making the web worse. If you wait 8 seconds on reddit, the content will appear. It's intentionally hidden from view for 8 seconds by the AMP standard.

Here's an example:

Just wait 8 seconds.

This is why AMP needs to go away.

While I agree with you on the fact that AMP is useless junk, I'm not exactly sure if I'm following you correctly.

Do you mean that there's some sort of redirect from the AMP version to the original page? I'm 90% sure that this doesn't happen in my device 🤷

In any case, thank you for the explanation. I appreciate getting into the details for blocks such as this :)

I mean that there is a CSS rule that hides the content for 8 seconds.

      <style amp-boilerplate="">
        body{-webkit-animation:-amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal
        both;-moz-animation:-amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal both;-ms-animation:-amp-start
        8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal both;animation:-amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1
        normal both}@-webkit-keyframes
        -amp-start{from{visibility:hidden}to{visibility:visible}}@-moz-keyframes
        -amp-start{from{visibility:hidden}to{visibility:visible}}@-ms-keyframes
        -amp-start{from{visibility:hidden}to{visibility:visible}}@-o-keyframes
        -amp-start{from{visibility:hidden}to{visibility:visible}}@keyframes
        -amp-start{from{visibility:hidden}to{visibility:visible}}
      </style>

This is "required" by the AMP specification.

Wow, I didn't notice that. This part of the specifications is the most idiotic thing I've seen!

Thank you for the clarification

Didnt know this, thanks.
