    Can you write a carousel without JS? A live blog? Lazy loading images and ads? A stateful e-commerce product page? Have a look through the list of AMP components, you'll be surpris…

    The page is still yours. You have absolute control over the branding, the analytics, the monetisation. Just because it happens not to be served from your domain doesn't mean it's n…

    Post with more comments than upvotes are penalised as a proxy for controversiality (remember HN doesn't have downvotes for posts)
