If it just ends up being a stopgap I'll be relieved, but it feels weirder than that when placed against Facebook and Apple's efforts

so, my primary critique of amp is that as currently formulated it can only be a stopgap. they have no (public) plan for the long term

i've asked, btw. a lot. their plan seems to be "all the web's an amp". clearly that's not what will happen. i dunno what will.

I guess it felt like an aggressive posture against someone who largely agrees with you but for slightly different reasons

we don't largely agree. first, i don't see a problem with amp urls, which is his primary critique (other than smth about scrolling), afaict.

2nd, i think amp is a good thing in the short term. gruber does not. "make faster websites" is not a workable solution. it's insulting, rly.

If he'd said "pop-ups suck, stop putting them on your websites" in 2003, would that be any different?

Would it have been any more effective? Measure outcomes.

I think that consequentialism is not the right angle here. Griping is stage one of a process. Stage two is "what do we do about it"

Feels like when someone gives a fair critique of an OSS program and gets told "oh yeah? Where's the patch, gadfly"
