It is never explained but I believe AMP here means Accelerated Mobile Pages.

Reddit uses it and it is awful, because it never remembers your choice to not use the app, and will keep asking you.

Reddit's incessant up-selling is completely unrelated to AMP; they do it on all of their pages.

And just another anecdote, but I like Reddit's use of AMP. The pages load super fast, the top comments are all accessible, and there's a big button at the bottom to load the full page if you want.

A reminder: one can go to https://old.reddit.com/r/test/ to access the old site, and https://old.reddit.com/r/test/.compact to see a mobile-friendly version.

Alternative to .compact is https://i.reddit.com/r/test

I just mean that if you dismiss it on their full page, it’s gone (for a while - not forever), but comes back with every click on their amp pages.

You can override things like that with an extension called Stylus. Inspect the element and then add a new CSS rule (globally, by domain, or by URL). Stylus will remember it.
