Slashdot, fix the reply notifications... You won't get away with it...
AMP is the most annoying new "feature" infesting the web. Half of the time, the pages don't load properly so i have to click through the link at the top to get directly to the page.
Instead of trying to make my mobile browsing experience better, why don't you deliver the damn content I asked for Google!.
