Title is accurate. People don't know what a UIWebBrowserView is, it's their problem. Hint: It's completely different than UIWebView.

Accurate but misleading, I never said the title was inaccurate.

  I cannot see how it is misleading by being accurate. People just need to read the article, then do some research (like a simple Google search).

    It's misleading because most people will read it as Apple rejecting hybrid apps like those that use Cordova, which is completely false. In fact, in this very thread someone commented "Good riddance. If your "app" fits entirely in an UIWebBrowserView, it should be a website." Seeing as how a good portion of HN users don't bother clicking through to the actual articles, this title can definitely be categorized as misleading. I myself initially thought it meant Apple was starting to reject hybrid apps, but only upon reading the comments did I realize what the title actually meant.

it's not accurate. Apple did not "start" rejecting. They've been rejecting all apps that use private APIs, including UIWebBrowserView. The title should be "Apps built with Ionic are rejected for using UIWebBrowserView"

No, it's kinda misleading. Saying that everyone should be intimately familiar with your chosen platform is pretty arrogant.

  I am not arrogant. For example, I am not familiar with Android intricacies; I would not jump to sensationalist conclusions just from a title without read the article, first and foremost, then doing some basic research. How arrogant is it to expect this of fellow tech people?

    In this thread you've been nothing but arrogant. Claiming that everyone should know the intimate details of your platform, and then to google it when they might not even be aware that they don't know, is quite arrogant. Fix the title.
