WKWebView Scroll Position
In NetNewsWire, I use JavaScript evaluation with a
WKWebViewto get the current scroll position.It broke in Catalina. I used
document.body.scrollTopto get the y position, which appears to always return 0 now.Workaround:
window.pageYOffsetseems to work.
The workaround I found was
document.documentElement.scrollTop. This one’s mutable wherewindow.pageYOffsetis read-only.
It’s a long road to replace the WebView APIs that worked for so long.

Recently, Apple introduced a new App Submission warning stating that they are formally deprecating
UIWebView. We wanted to let the Ionic community know what this warning is all about and how the Ionic team plans to address it.[…]
Sometime in the future, iOS apps may be blocked from release to the App Store when Apple decides to enforce blocking apps that use
UIWebView.[…]
The Cordova team is actively discussing a plan to move forward. This will take time as they plan the best way to move forward without severely impacting users.
