[I work for Google, opinions my own]

If you have specific issues you can spell out, consider filing a bug on it[0]? The AMP team is tracking most of their work via Github as far as I'm aware.

As an iOS user, one bug that bothered me for a long time with AMP was scroll inertia, which seems to be an issue with Webkit rather than AMP[1]. If you poke around the tracker, you can see the team does what it can to fix issues across all platforms/browsers.

Problem: A giant Google banner over web page, URL is broken

Solution: Remove banner, redirect to URL

Resolution: Closed, Google likes it that way.

Actual solution: Don't use AMP, and slowly get pushed out of Google search.

Funny that AMP just happened to use some sort of page structure that triggered an iOS bug that >99.9% of the rest of the web does not trigger...

What are the chances that Google would listen to big reports, supposing that anybody could find those links? Google is notorious for being inaccessible unless you happen to know an employee personally or have enough juice on twitter. They do not have a reputation as an open or accessible company.

You work for google, so you're unabashedly supporting a terrible attack on the open web because it's "fast"?
