"AMP Has Irreparably Damaged Publishers’ Trust in Google-led Initiatives", Sarah Gooding (@wptavern)
In summary, it claims that Google falsely told publishers that adopting AMP would enhance load times, even though the company’s employees knew that it only improved the “median of performance” and actually loaded slower than some speed optimization techniques publishers had been using.
Cette chasse aux interstitiels doit être envisagée dans une approche plus globale d’allégement de son site ou de “désencombrement”.
Au-delà de faciliter la navigation, la réduction de la publicité au strict minimum et la suppression des images ou vidéos inutiles (entre autres) permettent de recentrer l’attention de l’utilisateur.
It is great to see Google create a new Page Experience signal using a brilliant object-oriented approach. I think it is smart, flexible, and scalable. That said, in my opinion, the signal must have teeth in order for it to be taken seriously by site owners, developers, and SEOs. If not, it can fall by the wayside.
It is not uncommon for experts to be told sometimes: "Google does this" or "Apple does that" to justify terrible practices. Except that Apple and Google are just as often wrong as the rest of us. Their notoriety doesn't make them better, it just increases their level of accountability. Nothing more but nothing less.
Yes it's better to self-host as the performance gains are substantial […] However, Google Fonts is not just a repository of hundreds of free fonts - it is also a clever delivery mechanism […] There is some complexity involved in this (which Google Fonts handles for you) but with WOFF2-only being a realistic option now, and good support of most techniques with inbuilt fallbacks, this is easier than it used to be.
Aussi, nous ne pouvons pas nous empêcher de supposer une volonté de Google de soulager son infrastructure.
Pourquoi vouloir à tout prix rendre un site rapide ? Pas seulement par souci UX ou par amour de son.a prochain.e, mais aussi parce que Google passe du temps à crawler un volume immense de pages.

tl;dr: Google wants you to build PWAs, reduce JavaScript file size, use Web Components, and configure autofill. They announced only a handful of features around payments, authentication, Android Trusted Web Activities, Chrome Dev Tools, and the Chrome User Experience Report.
"Je veux être bien clair : je pense qu’AMP est un framework qui a été conçu avec de bonnes intentions, pensé pour résoudre le vrai problème d’un Web devenu bien trop lent pour ses utilisateurs. Mais utiliser AMP ? Le prix pour le Web, et pour ceux qui y gagnent leur vie, est vraiment, vraiment trop important."

... et plus globalement, les sites qui nécessitent des modules (Flash, Java...) non-supportés par le navigateur courant.
Quelques jours après la présentation par Google de ses consignes de Design pour Android L, Venture Beat est allé à la rencontre de WebDesigners pour avoir leur avis sur ce "Material Design"
