Where did AMP pages go?

Question

Back a few months ago, I saw them everywhere in my google searches, nowadays they don't show up in any of my google searches. Even if I use different devices, incognito, vpn, etc.Even the popular websites that supported them heavily dont show up in my google searches, anyone have insights about this?

Still there I.e.: https://www.google.com/search?q=layoffs&rlz=1CDGOYI_enAT855A...
on mobile crome, ios device Amp not marked in the news section (1 of 3)
3 times in the organic results, marked with a flash icon.
The day amp goes away is a day I celebrate. Huge ongoing project overhead for a subpart user experience (and crappy brittle technology) all in the name of SEO.

AMP pages are still there if you are still using Google on mobile.
I switched to duckduckgo on my phone for now.
I'm thinking about building a search page where the query goes to my home desktop computer where I run headless Chrome to scrape results from all the search engines and then forward them back to my phone. Unfortunately, Apple will not fucking let me use a custom search engine in Safari on the iPhone, probably because they're in cahoots with Google and China to bring about a new world order where nobody has any freedom whatsoever. xD

Ah, they are still there. They don't need to start with amp now. Didn't you read the latest articles? They are just disguised.

I don't know but I'm glad they are gone if that's the case. I only use Google very rarely these days and if an amp page presents itself to me umatrix completely blocks it and I take the actual URL from the amp URL and visit the actual site.I hate what Google is trying to do to the web!
