google amp pages
google amp annoying
google amp sucks
google amp conference
My equivalents in google.com are:
test
cache
disable
maps
Both bing.com and duckduckgo.com (which doesn't track) don't recognize "amp", even when I put both first words in quotes, and assume I made a typo in "maps".
This simple test is therefore inconclusive, but my hypothesis is that his search autocomplete hints are, ironically, colored by his search history. The only negative word I got (disabled) is much more neutral.
Now that I think about it, duckduckgo's "no tracking" isn't just valuable for privacy. It's also valuable for consistent search results across computers without yielding even more information (logging in etc). A few times I made a query and found something useful and surprising, and then I wasn't able to replicate the query on another computer to show someone else. In any case I'd hate to miss a rare interesting page because Google thought that extra 10 pages about Linux might interest me more.
I get google amp .. pages, annoying, disable on mobile safari. I've never searched for google amp before and generally don't search for anything that would encourage that. An option to disable would be good. Don't see what the big deal is. Doubt many people would use it, but technical folks would probably like it.
Why this was voted up to top on HN is weird. Even if enabled by Google, won't have any impact.
