Currently still in Nightly and only on 'Copy Link'. Still nice progress though.

Is AMP still a thing? I haven't seen it in ages.

I don't use Google so maybe that's why, but I hadn't even seen it on Reddit or Lemmy in more than a year I believe.

Oh man. I see it all the time. People share amp links on social too often.

I see it pretty often. But most of the time, if an "AMPutator" bot doesn't reply, someone usually mentions it and says to stop sharing AMP links and provides links to information about it. It's good to see, but most people still aren't aware of it, and most of those people wouldn't care much. We all need to keep a lookout and always be ready to inform and teach others about it. It's good to have articles about how AMP is bad for everyone (except google) saved so we can quickly share them every time we see someone share an AMP link.
