Do you refuse to click Google AMP links?

Yep. If the person isn't considerate enough to strip that AMP crap out of the link, why should I care what they're sharing?

Absolutely. They should be banned, tbh.

No. I have bigger things to worry about than the type of link shared on an Internet forum.

Such as Google harvesting your data. That is a bigger thing to worry about indeed.

I’ll click them, but I won’t link to them myself. AMP is a ridiculous “solution” to a problem (slow webpage loading) that shouldn’t exist anyway in 2020 when pretty much everybody has high-speed internet.

Of course. I also won't click on links to Twitter or YouTube here since we have the embedding feature, and in fact all 3 of them should lead to infraction points against any user inconsiderate enough to post one.

I mean, are there any companies or government spy agencies that aren’t harvesting my data?

I found this really good video explaining AMP links.
